From eb1610b4c273370f491c5e194e5a56e3470d81e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede Date: Sun, 23 Oct 2016 21:47:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] led: core: Fix blink_brightness setting race All 3 of led_timer_func, led_set_brightness and led_set_software_blink set blink_brightness. If led_timer_func or led_set_software_blink race with led_set_brightness they may end up overwriting the new blink_brightness. The new atomic work_flags does not protect against this as it just protects the flags and not blink_brightness. This commit introduces a new new_blink_brightness value which gets set by led_set_brightness and read by led_timer_func on LED on, fixing this. Dealing with the new brightness at LED on time, makes the new brightness apply sooner, which also fixes a led_set_brightness which happens while a oneshot blink which ends in LED on is running not getting applied.
