[PATCH 0/2] cgroup: pids: fix invalid reference semantics

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've discovered a bug in the PIDs cgroup. We aren't properly dealing
with css references (we grab a reference to a css in ->can_attach() and
then drop a reference to a *different* css in ->{cancel_,}attach(). This
is a quick patch I wrote which I believe fixes the problem by getting
cgroup_migrate() to grab a reference before ->can_attach() and once the
attach has failed or succeded.
