Subject: [PATCH 26/31] tty: reorder ldisc locking
Date: Tue, 1 Jun 2010 22:53:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1275425591-8803-27-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1275425591-8803-1-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de>
We need to release the BTM in paste_selection() when
sleeping in tty_ldisc_ref_wait to avoid deadlocks
with tty_ldisc_enable.
In tty_set_ldisc, we now always grab the BTM before
taking the ldisc_mutex in order to avoid AB-BA
deadlocks between the two.
tty_ldisc_halt potentially blocks on a workqueue
function that takes the BTM, so we must release
the BTM before calling it.
