[PATCH for-4.4 10/13] mailbox: always wait in mbox_send_message for blocking Tx mode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@xxxxxxx>

commit c61b781ee084e69855477d23dd33e7e6caad652c upstream.

There exists a race when msg_submit return immediately as there was an
active request being processed which may have completed just before it's
checked again in mbox_send_message. This will result in return to the
caller without waiting in mbox_send_message even when it's blocking Tx.

This patch fixes the issue by waiting for the completion always if Tx
is in blocking mode.
