Subject: [PATCH] fb: udlfb: fix scheduling while atomic.
Date: Sat, 05 Jan 2013 11:42:09 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1357386129-763-1-git-send-email-holler@ahsoftware.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <50E81166.6050605@ahsoftware.de>
The console functions are using spinlocks while calling fb-driver ops
but udlfb waits for a semaphore in many ops. This results in the BUG
"scheduling while atomic". One of those call flows is e.g.
vt_console_print() (spinlock printing_lock)
(...)
dlfb_ops_imageblit()
dlfb_handle_damage()
dlfb_get_urb()
down_timeout(semaphore)
BUG: scheduling while atomic
(...)
vt_console_print() (release spinlock printing_lock)
Fix this through a workqueue for dlfb_handle_damage().
