Message-ID: <2026052852-glade-reliably-a52e@gregkh> (raw)
The patch below does not apply to the 5.10-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm
tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit
id to <stable@vger.kernel.org>.
To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands:
git fetch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/ linux-5.10.y
git checkout FETCH_HEAD

Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (pmbus/adm1266) serialize GPIO PMBus accesses with
pmbus_lock
adm1266_gpio_get(), adm1266_gpio_get_multiple(), and
adm1266_gpio_dbg_show() all issue PMBus reads against the device but
none of them take pmbus_lock. The pmbus_core framework holds
pmbus_lock around its own multi-transaction sequences (notably the
"set PAGE, then read paged register" pattern used by hwmon
attributes), so an unlocked GPIO accessor can land between a PAGE
write and the subsequent paged read in another thread and corrupt
either side's view of the device state machine.
Take pmbus_lock at the top of each of the three accessors via the
scope-based guard(). The lock is uncontended in the common case and
adds only a single mutex round-trip per call.
