Subject: [PATCH 3/8] s390: avoid inconsistent lock state in qeth
Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 12:58:02 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070620105802.GC9454@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070620104817.GA2627@de.ibm.com>
From: Ursula Braun <braunu@de.ibm.com>
ipv6_regen_rndid in net/ipv6/addrconf.c makes use of "write_lock_bh"
for its inet6_dev->lock. It may run in softirq-context.
qeth makes use of "read_lock" for the same inet6_dev->lock.
To avoid a potential deadlock situation, qeth should make use of
"read_lock_bh" for its usages of inet6_dev->lock.
