[PATCH 4.4 28/38] ALSA: mixart: Fix mutex deadlock

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

 



From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit d21b96c8ed2aea7e6b7bf4735e1d2503cfbf4072 upstream.

The code change for switching to non-atomic mode brought the
unexpected mutex deadlock in get_msg().  It converted the spinlock
with the existing mutex, but there were calls with the already holding
the mutex.  Since the only place that needs the extra lock is the code
path from snd_mixart_send_msg(), remove the mutex lock in get_msg()
and apply in the caller side for fixing the mutex deadlock.
