[PATCH 36/37] binder: fix death race conditions

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

 



From: Martijn Coenen <maco@xxxxxxxxxx>

A race existed where one thread could register
a death notification for a node, while another
thread was cleaning up that node and sending
out death notifications for its references,
causing simultaneous access to ref->death
because different locks were held.
