[PATCH] scsi_dh_alua: Fix a reference counting bug

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

 



The code at the end of alua_rtpg_work() is as follows:

	scsi_device_put(sdev);
	kref_put(&pg->kref, release_port_group);

Make sure that all code that queues the work item associated
with alua_rtpg_work() holds both references.
