SubjectRe: [PATCH] Bluetooth: avoid recursive locking in hci_send_to_channel()
From
Date
Hi Sebastian,

> Mart reported a deadlock in -RT in the call path:
> hci_send_monitor_ctrl_event() -> hci_send_to_channel()
>
> because both functions acquire the same read lock hci_sk_list.lock. This
> is also a mainline issue because the qrwlock implementation is writer
> fair (the traditional rwlock implementation is reader biased).
>
> To avoid the deadlock there is now __hci_send_to_channel() which expects
> the readlock to be held.
