From f22cf689a6353f072bca15d0a26f870e62dfacf8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cindy H Kao Date: Sat, 30 Jan 2010 01:26:54 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] wimax/i2400m: fix the race condition for accessing TX queue The race condition happens when the TX queue is accessed by the TX work while the same TX queue is being destroyed because a bus reset is triggered either by debugfs entry or simply by failing waking up the device from WiMAX IDLE mode. This fix is to prevent the TX queue from being accessed by multiple threads Signed-off-by: Cindy H Kao --- drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/i2400m-sdio.h | 5 ++++- drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/sdio-tx.c | 31 ++++++++++++++++++++------ 2 files changed, 28 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/i2400m-sdio.h b/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/i2400m-sdio.h index b9c4bed3b45..360d4fb195f 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/i2400m-sdio.h +++ b/drivers/net/wimax/i2400m/i2400m-sdio.h @@ -99,7 +99,10 @@ enum { * * @tx_workqueue: workqeueue used for data TX; we don't use the * system's workqueue as that might cause deadlocks with code in - * the bus-generic driver. + * the bus-generic driver.
