[PATCH 3.4 68/92] genirq: Fix race in register_irq_proc()

From: lizf
Date: Mon Apr 18 2016 - 06:50:54 EST


From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.4.112-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


commit 95c2b17534654829db428f11bcf4297c059a2a7e upstream.

Per-IRQ directories in procfs are created only when a handler is first
added to the irqdesc, not when the irqdesc is created. In the case of
a shared IRQ, multiple tasks can race to create a directory. This
race condition seems to have been present forever, but is easier to
hit with async probing.
