Subject: [patch 11/13] zfcp: fix erp list usage without using locks
Date: Wed, 01 Oct 2008 12:42:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081001104804.968111000@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20081001104213.585200000@de.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: zfcp_use_dbf_lock_version.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1039 bytes --]

From: Swen Schillig <swen@vnet.ibm.com>

The zfcp_erp_thread was using the nolock version of the dbf function.
This resulted in a list access while other tasks could modifying the
list. The symptom was an erp thread running at 100% CPU and never
returning from the dbf function.
