Revision 7ff57e98fb78ad94edafbdc7435f2d745e9e6bb5 authored by Fabio M. De Francesco on 23 February 2022, 10:02:52 UTC, committed by Jakub Kicinski on 24 February 2022, 17:09:33 UTC 
net/smc: Use a mutex for locking "struct smc_pnettable"
 
smc_pnetid_by_table_ib() uses read_lock() and then it calls smc_pnet_apply_ib()
which, in turn, calls mutex_lock(&smc_ib_devices.mutex).

read_lock() disables preemption. Therefore, the code acquires a mutex while in
atomic context and it leads to a SAC bug.

Fix this bug by replacing the rwlock with a mutex.

============================

Supported thermistors from Murata:

* Murata NTC Thermistors NCP15WB473, NCP18WB473, NCP21WB473, NCP03WB473,
  NCP15WL333, NCP03WF104, NCP15XH103

  Prefixes: 'ncp15wb473', 'ncp18wb473', 'ncp21wb473', 'ncp03wb473',
  'ncp15wl333', 'ncp03wf104', 'ncp15xh103'

  Datasheet: Publicly available at Murata

Supported thermistors from EPCOS:

* EPCOS NTC Thermistors B57330V2103

  Prefixes: b57330v2103

  Datasheet: Publicly available at EPCOS

Other NTC thermistors can be supported simply by adding compensation
tables; e.g., NCP15WL333 support is added by the table ncpXXwl333.

Description
-----------

The NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor is a simple thermistor
that requires users to provide the resistance and lookup the corresponding
compensation table to get the temperature input.

The NTC driver provides lookup tables with a linear approximation function
and four circuit models with an option not to use any of the four models.

Using the following convention::

   $	resistor
   [TH]	the thermistor

The four circuit models provided are:

1. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_POSITIVE, pullup_ohm > 0::

     [pullup_uV]
	 |    |
	[TH]  $ (pullup_ohm)
	 |    |
	 +----+-----------------------[read_uV]
	 |
	 $ (pulldown_ohm)
	 |
	-+- (ground)

2. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_POSITIVE, pullup_ohm = 0 (not-connected)::

     [pullup_uV]
	 |
	[TH]
	 |
	 +----------------------------[read_uV]
	 |
	 $ (pulldown_ohm)
	 |
	-+- (ground)

3. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_GROUND, pulldown_ohm > 0::

     [pullup_uV]
	 |
	 $ (pullup_ohm)
	 |
	 +----+-----------------------[read_uV]
	 |    |
	[TH]  $ (pulldown_ohm)
	 |    |
	-+----+- (ground)

4. connect = NTC_CONNECTED_GROUND, pulldown_ohm = 0 (not-connected)::

     [pullup_uV]
	 |
	 $ (pullup_ohm)
	 |
	 +----------------------------[read_uV]
	 |
	[TH]
	 |
	-+- (ground)

When one of the four circuit models is used, read_uV, pullup_uV, pullup_ohm,
pulldown_ohm, and connect should be provided. When none of the four models
are suitable or the user can get the resistance directly, the user should
provide read_ohm and _not_ provide the others.

Sysfs Interface
---------------

=============== == =============================================================
name		   the mandatory global attribute, the thermistor name.
=============== == =============================================================
temp1_type	RO always 4 (thermistor)

temp1_input	RO measure the temperature and provide the measured value.
		   (reading this file initiates the reading procedure.)
=============== == =============================================================

Note that each NTC thermistor has only _one_ thermistor; thus, only temp1 exists.
