video: tegra: dc: acquire window locks in an order to avoid a deadlock
All window locks are grabbed while performing dc window updates. Currently, no particular locking order is followed for these locks. If user provided windows are not in order, this leads to deadlock due to race between flip ioctl and dc underflow reset worker. Now on all window locks are acquired in an order as below 1. window A i.e. index 0 2. window B i.e. index 1 3. window C i.e. index 2 And unlocked in the reverse order 1. window C i.e. index 2 2. window B i.e. index 1 3. window A i.e. index 0 Bug 936545 Signed-off-by: Nitin Kumbhar <nkumbhar@nvidia.com> Reviewed-on: http://git-master/r/83107 (cherry picked from commit 68815fa87e879d0c783e8fd38f473f414806c0be) Change-Id: I3b3e00eaf91384c39ff74047f06af8199848ad92 Reviewed-on: http://git-master/r/83405 Tested-by: Nitin Kumbhar <nkumbhar@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Bharat Nihalani <bnihalani@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jon Mayo <jmayo@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Robert Morell <rmorell@nvidia.com>
