This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled serial/mxs-auart: fix race condition in interrupt handler to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.7. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 3df718a5cb3f59b4dfba08ee0091db396f6afec0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Uwe=20Kleine-K=C3=B6nig?= <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> Date: Thu, 4 Jul 2013 11:28:51 +0200 Subject: serial/mxs-auart: fix race condition in interrupt handler MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit commit d970d7fe65adff5efe75b4a73c4ffc9be57089f7 upstream. The handler needs to ack the pending events before actually handling them. Otherwise a new event might come in after it it considered non-pending or handled and is acked then without being handled. So this event is only noticed when the next interrupt happens. Without this patch an i.MX28 based machine running an rt-patched kernel regularly hangs during boot.
