[PATCH 5.10 085/663] ath11k: fix a locking bug in ath11k_mac_op_start()

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

 



From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c202e2ebe1dc454ad54fd0018c023ec553d47284 ]

This error path leads to a Smatch warning:

	drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:4269 ath11k_mac_op_start()
	error: double unlocked '&ar->conf_mutex' (orig line 4251)

We're not holding the lock when we do the "goto err;" so it leads to a
double unlock.  The fix is to hold the lock for a little longer.

Fixes: c83c500b55b6 ("ath11k: enable idle power save mode")
