From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2014 11:50:21 +0100 > In ppp_ioctl(), bpf_prog_create() is called inside ppp_lock, which > eventually calls vmalloc() and hits BUG_ON() in vmalloc.c. This patch > works around the problem by moving the allocation outside the lock. > > The bug was revealed by the recent change in net/core/filter.c, as it > allocates via vmalloc() instead of kmalloc() now. > > Reported-and-tested-by: Stefan Seyfried <stefan.seyfried@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> Applied and queued up for -stable, thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
