From a4dd4fc6105e54393d637450a11d4cddb5fabc4f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Saubhik Mukherjee Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 19:07:12 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] net: appletalk: cops: Fix data race in cops_probe1 In cops_probe1(), there is a write to dev->base_addr after requesting an interrupt line and registering the interrupt handler cops_interrupt(). The handler might be called in parallel to handle an interrupt. cops_interrupt() tries to read dev->base_addr leading to a potential data race. So write to dev->base_addr before calling request_irq(). Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org). Signed-off-by: Saubhik Mukherjee Signed-off-by: David S.
