In binder_thread_read, the BINDER_WORK_NODE command is used to communicate the references on the node to userspace. It can take a couple of iterations in the loop to construct the list of commands for user space. When locking is added, the lock would need to be release on each iteration which means the state could change. The work item is not dequeued during this process which prevents a simpler queue management that can just dequeue up front and handle the work item. Fixed by changing the BINDER_WORK_NODE algorithm in binder_thread_read to determine which commands to send to userspace atomically in 1 pass so it stays consistent with the kernel view. The work item is now dequeued immediately since only 1 pass is needed. Signed-off-by: Todd Kjos <tkjos@google.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
