Subject: [PATCH 2/5] x86: mce: Serialize mce injection
Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2012 13:59:38 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342720781-4729-3-git-send-email-gong.chen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1342720781-4729-1-git-send-email-gong.chen@linux.intel.com>
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
raise_mce() fiddles with global state, but lacks any kind of
serialization.
Add a mutex around the raise_mce() call, so concurrent writers do not
stomp on each other toes.
