As warned by smatch: drivers/media/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.c:314 dvb_frontend_get_event() warn: inconsistent returns 'sem:&fepriv->sem'. Locked on: line 288 line 295 line 306 line 314 Unlocked on: line 303 The lock implementation for get event is wrong, as, if an interrupt occurs, down_interruptible() will fail, and the routine will call up() twice when userspace calls the ioctl again. The bad code is there since when Linux migrated to git, in 2005. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
