Subject: [PATCH] floppy: select FDC before arming timeout work
Date: Mon,  4 May 2026 11:28:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260504032853.316099-1-zzzccc427@gmail.com> (raw)

floppy_shutdown() uses current_fdc to choose which controller state
to mark for reset when fd_timeout expires. lock_fdc() currently arms
that timeout before set_fdc() has selected the drive/FDC and updated
current_drive/current_fdc.

drive_params[drive].timeout is user configurable, so the timeout
can be immediate. Even with a non-zero timeout, a delayed caller can
leave the timeout work running while set_fdc() is still testing
fdc_state[fdc].rawcmd and updating the adjacent reset bitfield. The
timeout can then use stale selected-controller state or race the reset
bitfield update.

Move the timeout arm after set_fdc() in lock_fdc(), and keep the
same ordering for the direct floppy_queue_rq() path. This ensures
fd_timeout cannot run until the selected-controller state describes
the operation being timed.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
