From 4356d0b64b9be53c507f66c572c1e275b4529239 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ram Vepa Date: Fri, 27 May 2011 13:41:55 +0000 Subject: IB/qib: Fix potential deadlock with link down interrupt There is a possibility of a deadlock due to the way locks are acquired and released in qib_set_uevent_bits(). The function qib_set_uevent_bits() is called in process context and it uses spin_lock() and spin_unlock(). This same lock is acquired/released in interrupt context which can lead to a deadlock when running on the same cpu. The fix is to replace spin_lock() and spin_unlock() with spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_irqrestore() respectively in qib_set_uevent_bits().
