[PATCH v3 1/6] PCI: hv: Fix a race condition bug in hv_pci_query_relations()

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

 



Fix the longstanding race between hv_pci_query_relations() and
survey_child_resources() by flushing the workqueue before we exit from
hv_pci_query_relations().
