Subject: [PATCH] x86, mce: stop calling del_timer_sync() from interrupt
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2011 16:28:35 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DF9B0A3.4030904@jp.fujitsu.com> (raw)
Use of on_each_cpu() results in calling the function passed as the
argument on interrupt context.
Calling del_timer_sync() from interrupt context can cause deadlock
if it interrupts the target timer running.
MCE code has some such misuse of del_timer_sync() in parts for sysfs
file; bank*, check_interval, cmci_disabled and ignore_ce.
Fortunately these files are rare-used but you will be warned on write.
This patch will fix it.
