From d0a34f98d1da66a5b4e02171854e6c04c9916016 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ursula Braun Date: Wed, 29 Aug 2007 11:26:52 +0200 Subject: qeth: ungrouping a device must not be interruptible Problem: A recovery thread must not be active when device is removed. In qeth_remove_device() an interruptible wait operation is used to wait until a qeth recovery thread is finished. If a user really interrupts the ungroup operation of a qeth device while a recovery is running, cio and qeth are out of sync (device already removed from cio, but kept in qeth). A following module unload of qeth results in a kernel OOPS here. Solution: Do not allow interruption of ungroup operation to guarantee finishing of a potentially running qeth recovery thread.
