[RT PATCH] kernel/irq: make irq_set_affinity_notifier() work on old_notify consistently

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

 



The second half of irq_set_affinity_notifier() flushes an old notifier,
but (for RT) it is currently working on 'notify', which is the new one
(or can be NULL - in fact a NULL pointer dereference has been observed).

Fix this by making the second half of irq_set_affinity_notifier() use
old_notify consistently.

Fixes: d4200ab75cdd ("genirq: Handle missing work_struct in irq_set_affinity_notifier()")

Hi,

This applies to v4.19.59-rt24 (and to all the other branches that have
the patch that introduced the issue). v5.2-rtx doesn't have this problem
(thanks to the workqueue rework).

Best,

Juri
