Subject: [2.6 patch] dpt_i2o fix for deadlock condition
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2005 11:51:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <547AF3BD0F3F0B4CBDC379BAC7E4189F01E3DD6C@otce2k03.adaptec.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 633 bytes --]

Miquel van Smoorenburg <miquels@cistron.nl> forwarded me this fix to
resolve a deadlock condition that occurs due to the API change in
2.6.13+ kernels dropping the host locking when entering the error
handling. They all end up calling adpt_i2o_post_wait(), which if you
call it unlocked, might return with host_lock locked anyway and that
causes a deadlock.
