From 9513e5e3f5a6b429da8a9fd4330f71f1e547c8e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Carstens Date: Sat, 3 Sep 2005 15:58:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] s390: spinlock corner case On s390 the lock value used for spinlocks consists of the lower 32 bits of the PSW that holds the lock. If this address happens to be on a four gigabyte boundary the lock is left unlocked. This allows other cpus to grab the same lock and enter a lock protected code path concurrently. In theory this can happen if the vmalloc area for the code of a module crosses a 4 GB boundary.
