Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ras: close the race condition with timer
Date: Mon, 15 Apr 2019 18:20:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190416012001.5338-2-xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190416012001.5338-1-xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com>

cec_timer_fn() is a timer callback which reads ce_arr.array[]
and updates its decay values. Elements could be added to or
removed from this global array in parallel, although the array
itself will not grow or shrink. del_lru_elem_unlocked() uses
FULL_COUNT() as a key to find a right element to remove,
which could be affected by the parallel timer.

Fix this by converting the mutex to a spinlock and holding it
inside the timer.
