[patch 20/26] i4l: Fix random hard freeze with AVM c4 card

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



2.6.22-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: Karsten Keil <[email protected]>

patch 1ccfd63367c1a6aaf8b33943f18856dde85f2f0b in mainline.

The patch
- Includes the call to capilib_data_b3_req in the spinlock. This routine
  in turn calls the offending mq_enqueue routine that triggered the
  freeze if not locked.  This should also fix other indicators of
  incosistent capilib_msgidqueue list, that trigger messages like:
  Oct  5 03:05:57 BERL0 kernel: kcapi: msgid 3019 ncci 0x30301 not on queue
  that we saw several times a day (usually several in a row).
- Fixes all occurrences of c4_dispatch_tx to be called with active
  spinlock, there were some instances where no lock was active. Mostly
  these are in very infrequently called routines, so the additional
  performance penalty is minimal.
