From: Ido Schimmel Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2015 06:21:55 +0000 (+0200) Subject: mlxsw: core: Fix race condition in __mlxsw_emad_transmit X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=53ca376eec4eb635e2249c8e89093f499e180731;p=linux-beck.git mlxsw: core: Fix race condition in __mlxsw_emad_transmit Under certain conditions EMAD responses can be returned from the device even before setting trans_active. This will cause the EMAD Rx listener to drop the EMAD response - as there are no active transactions - and timeouts will be generated. Fix this by setting trans_active before transmitting the EMAD skb.
