From bf11c134246e8f3cfa2582a3d2af84ed7dfd59b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Abbott Date: Fri, 8 Nov 2013 15:03:25 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] staging: comedi: use attach_lock semaphore during attach and detach Acquire the `attach_lock` semaphore in the `struct comedi_device` while modifying the `attached` flag. This is a "write" acquire. Note that the main mutex in the `struct comedi_device` is also held at this time. Tasks wishing to check the device is attached will need to either acquire the main mutex, or "read" acquire the `attach_lock` semaphore, or both in that order.
