[PATCH 02/55] skd: Avoid that module unloading triggers a use-after-free

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

 



Since put_disk() triggers a disk_release() call and since that
last function calls blk_put_queue() if disk->queue != NULL, clear
the disk->queue pointer before calling put_disk(). This avoids
that unloading the skd kernel module triggers the following
use-after-free:
