[ Upstream commit e49756544a ]
In pl330_update() when checking if a channel has been aborted, the
channel's lock is not taken, only the overall pl330_dmac lock. But in
pl330_terminate_all() the aborted flag (req_running==-1) is set under
the channel lock and not the pl330_dmac lock.
With threaded interrupts, this leads to a potential race:
pl330_terminate_all pl330_update
------------------- ------------
lock channel
entry
lock pl330
_stop channel
unlock pl330
lock pl330
check req_running != -1
req_running = -1
_start channel

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.
