Specifically, functions hci_req_sync() and hci_dev_do_close() can race each other like below: thread-A in hci_req_sync() | thread-B in hci_dev_do_close() | hci_req_sync_lock(hdev); test_bit(HCI_UP, &hdev->flags); | ... | test_and_clear_bit(HCI_UP, &hdev->flags) hci_req_sync_lock(hdev); | | In this commit we alter the sequence in function hci_req_sync().

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.
