Subject: [patch 2/2] qeth: fix qeth_wait_for_threads() deadlock for OSN devices
Date: Mon, 08 Apr 2013 10:19:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130408082003.772850297@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20130408081925.995757091@de.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: 602-qeth-thread-deadlock.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3942 bytes --]

From: Stefan Raspl <raspl@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Any recovery thread will deadlock when calling qeth_wait_for_threads(), most
notably when triggering a recovery on an OSN device.
This patch will store the recovery thread's task pointer on recovery
invocation and check in qeth_wait_for_threads() respectively to avoid
deadlocks.
