Hi,
firstly, you fixed the ordering race.
However:
1. usblp_read():
rv = usblp_rwait_and_lock(usblp, !!(file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK));
if (rv < 0) {
count = rv;
goto done;
}
If you get a signal, the mutex will _not_ be locked, yet it'll be unlocked.
2. usblp_write():
if ((rv = usb_submit_urb(usblp->writeurb, GFP_KERNEL)) < 0) {
usblp->wcomplete = 1;
usblp->wstatus = 0;
mutex_unlock (&usblp->mut);
return writecount ? writecount : -EIO;
At least ENOMEM we'd probably like to report as such.
Regards
Oliver
