For reporting bugs send an email to the list. If you use Fedora or have a RHEL subscription, you can also report bugs to: * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/ If you use Debian Linux, we might also process / track bugs there: * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=netsniff-ng In any way, you'll get a reply from us. Please do not contact individual developers directly in case of netsniff-ng issues or patches, but rather always our mailing list. By this, you're not wasting time of a single developer and increase your chances of getting a reply from us. In general, we are also highly interested in how you use the toolkit, what problems you are trying to sovle and what kind of things you would like to have improved. So feel free to drop us some feature requests as well. t logo'/> index : net-next.git

dmaengine: pl330: fix double lock
The static bug finder EBA (http://www.iagoabal.eu/eba/) reported the following double-lock bug: Double lock: 1. spin_lock_irqsave(pch->lock, flags) at pl330_free_chan_resources:2236; 2. call to function `pl330_release_channel' immediately after; 3. call to function `dma_pl330_rqcb' in line 1753; 4. spin_lock_irqsave(pch->lock, flags) at dma_pl330_rqcb:1505. I have fixed it as suggested by Marek Szyprowski. First, I have replaced `pch->lock' with `pl330->lock' in functions `pl330_alloc_chan_resources' and `pl330_free_chan_resources'. This avoids the double-lock by acquiring a different lock than `dma_pl330_rqcb'. NOTE that, as a result, `pl330_free_chan_resources' executes `list_splice_tail_init' on `pch->work_list' under lock `pl330->lock', whereas in the rest of the code `pch->work_list' is protected by `pch->lock'. I don't know if this may cause race conditions. Similarly `pch->cyclic' is written by `pl330_alloc_chan_resources' under `pl330->lock' but read by `pl330_tx_submit' under `pch->lock'. Second, I have removed locking from `pl330_request_channel' and `pl330_release_channel' functions. Function `pl330_request_channel' is only called from `pl330_alloc_chan_resources', so the lock is already held. Function `pl330_release_channel' is called from `pl330_free_chan_resources', which already holds the lock, and from `pl330_del'. Function `pl330_del' is called in an error path of `pl330_probe' and at the end of `pl330_remove', but I assume that there cannot be concurrent accesses to the protected data at those points.
