Date: Thu, 05 May 2011 17:10:44 -0700 From: Greg KH <gregkh@...e.de> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...nel.org Cc: stable-review@...nel.org, torvalds@...ux-foundation.org, akpm@...ux-foundation.org, alan@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk, Jie Yang <jie.yang@...eros.com>, Tim Gardner <tim.gardner@...onical.com>, "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [patch 12/38] atl1c: Fix work event interrupt/task races 2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Tim Gardner <timg@....com> commit cb771838715b1c470bc5735bdae709b33b18e0ad upstream. The mechanism used to initiate work events from the interrupt handler has a classic read/modify/write race between the interrupt handler that sets the condition, and the worker task that reads and clears the condition. Close these races by using atomic bit fields. Cc: Jie Yang <jie.yang@...eros.com> Signed-off-by: Tim Gardner <tim.gardner@...onical.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
