[PATCH 1/3] blk-mq: protect q->elevator by ->sysfs_lock

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

 



elevator can be tore down by sysfs switch interface or disk release, so
hold ->sysfs_lock before referring to q->elevator, then potential
use-after-free can be avoided.
