From 91c36919a456589f4f073671474a1f899e0d3c2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Oberparleiter Date: Thu, 21 Aug 2008 19:46:39 +0200 Subject: [S390] cio: call ccw driver notify function with lock held Calling a ccw driver's notify function without the ccw device lock held opens up a race window between discovery and handling of a change in the device operational state. As a result, the device driver may encounter unexpected device malfunction, leading to out-of-retry situations or similar. Remove race by extending the ccw device lock from state change discovery to the calling of the notify function.
