From: Jay Vosburgh Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2008 00:24:57 +0000 (-0800) Subject: bonding: fix locking in sysfs primary/active selection X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24~41^2~23 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e934dd7862e7f613b2ce9730d548a0a70913c8f7;p=pandora-kernel.git bonding: fix locking in sysfs primary/active selection Fix the functions that store the primary and active slave options via sysfs to hold the correct locks in the correct order. The bond_change_active_slave and bond_select_active_slave functions both require rtnl, bond->lock for read and curr_slave_lock for write_bh, and no other locks. This is so that the lower level mode-specific functions (notably for balance-alb mode) can release locks down to just rtnl in order to call, e.g., dev_set_mac_address with the locks it expects (rtnl only).
