drivers/net/3c505.c: Get spin_lock twice

Detailed Description

Driver drivers/net/3c505.c - get spin_lock twice First spin_lock in driver drivers/net/3c505.c at line 1075:

1070 static netdev_tx_t elp_start_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device 
*dev)
1071 {
1072         unsigned long flags;
1073         elp_device *adapter = netdev_priv(dev);
1074
1075         spin_lock_irqsave(&adapter->lock, flags);
1076         check_3c505_dma(dev);
...
Path to second spin_lock_irqsave(&adapter->lock, flags) from elp_start_xmit:
  • elp_start_xmit calls check_3c505_dma at line 1076.
  • check_3c505_dma calls spin_lock_irqsave at line 301.
  •  293 static inline void check_3c505_dma(struct net_device *dev)
     294 {
     295         elp_device *adapter = netdev_priv(dev);
     296         if (adapter->dmaing && time_after(jiffies, adapter-
    >current_dma.start_time + 10)) {
     297                 unsigned long flags, f;
     298                 pr_err("%s: DMA %s timed out, %d bytes left
    ", dev-
    >name,
     299                         adapter->current_dma.direction ? "download" : 
    "upload",
     300                         get_dma_residue(dev->dma));
     301                 spin_lock_irqsave(&adapter->lock, flags);
