Subject: [patch 0/4] firewire: keeping accesses to fw_transaction in check
Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2008 14:48:23 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <tkrat.3186168349c88b15@s5r6.in-berlin.de> (raw)

Jay Fenlason pointed me to a race condition in firewire-core;  here are
some patches for it:

[1/4] firewire: fix race of bus reset with request transmission
[2/4] firewire: fully initialize fw_transaction before marking it pending
[3/4] firewire: small fw_fill_request cleanup
[4/4] firewire: warn on unfinished transactions during card removal

 drivers/firewire/fw-card.c        |    2 +-
 drivers/firewire/fw-topology.c    |    2 --
 drivers/firewire/fw-transaction.c |   21 +++++++++------------
 3 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)

Both the diffstat's +/- balance and initial testing look fine so far.
