From e8684c88774c0ddfeefdbed0aa469b25b9962f3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Khoroshilov Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2015 00:34:48 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] irda: ali-ircc: Fix deadlock in ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() is always called with self->lock held, so acquiring the lock inside it leads to unavoidable deadlock. Call graph: ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() is called from ali_ircc_change_speed() ali_ircc_fir_hard_xmit() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_sir_hard_xmit() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_net_ioctl() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_dma_xmit_complete() ali_ircc_fir_interrupt() ali_ircc_interrupt() under spin_lock(&self->lock); ali_ircc_sir_write_wakeup() ali_ircc_sir_interrupt() ali_ircc_interrupt() under spin_lock(&self->lock); The patch removes spin_lock/unlock from ali_ircc_sir_change_speed().
