commit5c34c0aef1upstream. bq27xxx_battery_update() assumes / requires that it is only run once, not multiple times at the same time. But there are 3 possible callers: 1. bq27xxx_battery_poll() delayed_work item handler 2. bq27xxx_battery_irq_handler_thread() I2C IRQ handler 3. bq27xxx_battery_setup() And there is no protection against these racing with each other, fix this race condition by making all callers take di->lock: - Rename bq27xxx_battery_update() to bq27xxx_battery_update_unlocked() - Add new bq27xxx_battery_update() which takes di->lock and then calls bq27xxx_battery_update_unlocked() - Make stale cache check code in bq27xxx_battery_get_property(), which already takes di->lock directly to check the jiffies, call bq27xxx_battery_update_unlocked() instead of messing with the delayed_work item - Make bq27xxx_battery_update_unlocked() mod the delayed-work item so that the next poll is delayed to poll_interval milliseconds after the last update independent of the source of the update Fixes:740b755a3b("bq27x00: Poll battery state") Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Sebastian Reichel <sebastian.reichel@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
