led_trigger_blink() calls led_blink_set() from a RCU read-side critical section so led_blink_set() must not sleep. Note sleeping was not allowed before the switch to RCU either because a spinlock was held before. led_blink_set() does not sleep when sw-blinking is used, but many LED controller drivers with hw blink support have a blink_set function which may sleep, leading to an oops like this one: [ 832.605062] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 832.605085] Voluntary context switch within RCU read-side critical section!

This also fixes an existing race where a pending led_set_brightness() has been deferred to set_brightness_work and might then race with a later led_cdev->blink_set() call. Note this race is only an issue with triggers mixing led_trigger_event() and led_trigger_blink() calls, sysfs API calls and led_trigger_blink_oneshot() are not affected. Note rather then adding a separate blink_set_blocking callback this uses the presence of the already existing brightness_set_blocking callback to detect if the blinking call should be deferred to set_brightness_work.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
