[patch 18/23] sparc64: Fix race in arch/sparc64/kernel/trampoline.S
From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Nov 07 2008 - 18:29:27 EST
2.6.26-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Andrea Shepard <andrea@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e0037df3852b4b60edbe01f70f4968e4a9fdb272 ]
Make arch/sparc64/kernel/trampoline.S in 2.6.27.1 lock prom_entry_lock
when calling the PROM. This prevents a race condition that I observed
causing a hang on startup on a 12-CPU E4500.
I am not subscribed to this list, so please CC me on replies.
