Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 12:58:02 +0200 From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@...ibm.com> To: jgarzik@...ox.com Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 3/8] s390: avoid inconsistent lock state in qeth From: Ursula Braun <braunu@...ibm.com> ipv6_regen_rndid in net/ipv6/addrconf.c makes use of "write_lock_bh" for its inet6_dev->lock. It may run in softirq-context. qeth makes use of "read_lock" for the same inet6_dev->lock. To avoid a potential deadlock situation, qeth should make use of "read_lock_bh" for its usages of inet6_dev->lock.
