This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rtc: rtc-at91rm9200: fix infinite wait for ACKUPD irq to the 3.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rtc-rtc-at91rm9200-fix-infinite-wait-for-ackupd-irq.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 2fe121e1f5aa3bf31b418a9790db6c400e922291 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Boris BREZILLON <boris.brezillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 6 Jun 2014 14:36:09 -0700 Subject: rtc: rtc-at91rm9200: fix infinite wait for ACKUPD irq From: Boris BREZILLON <boris.brezillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 2fe121e1f5aa3bf31b418a9790db6c400e922291 upstream. The rtc user must wait at least 1 sec between each time/calandar update (see atmel's datasheet chapter "Updating Time/Calendar"). Use the 1Hz interrupt to update the at91_rtc_upd_rdy flag and wait for the at91_rtc_wait_upd_rdy event if the rtc is not ready. This patch fixes a deadlock in an uninterruptible wait when the RTC is updated more than once every second. AFAICT the bug is here from the beginning, but I think we should at least backport this fix to 3.10 and the following longterm and stable releases.
