[PATCH v2 5/5] hwmon: (pmbus/adm1266) serialize GPIO PMBus accesses with pmbus_lock
From: Abdurrahman Hussain
Date: Sat May 16 2026 - 19:21:40 EST
adm1266_gpio_get(), adm1266_gpio_get_multiple(), and
adm1266_gpio_dbg_show() all issue PMBus reads against the device but
none of them take pmbus_lock. The pmbus_core framework holds
pmbus_lock around its own multi-transaction sequences (notably the
"set PAGE, then read paged register" pattern used by hwmon
attributes), so an unlocked GPIO accessor can land between a PAGE
write and the subsequent paged read in another thread and corrupt
either side's view of the device state machine.
Take pmbus_lock at the top of each of the three accessors via the
scope-based guard(). The lock is uncontended in the common case and
adds only a single mutex round-trip per call.
