Subject: [patch 3/5] qeth: avoid duplicate deletion of multicast addresses
Date: Fri, 05 Oct 2007 09:38:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071005074043.935379000@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20071005073816.996932000@linux.vnet.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: 709-qeth-multicast.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1257 bytes --]

From: Ursula Braun <braunu@de•ibm.com>

if qeth_set_multicast_list() is performed on 2 CPUs in parallel,
card->ip_list may end corrupted.
Solution: In function __qeth_delete_all_mc()
          remove card->ip_list entry before invoking 
          qeth_deregister_addr_entry(). Thus a 2nd invocation of
          qeth_set_multicast_list() cannot try to remove the
          same entry twice.
