[PATCH 2/7] qla2xxx: Fix use after free on unload

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

 



From: Quinn Tran <qutran@xxxxxxxxxxx>

System crash is observed with stack trace
warning of use after free. There are 2 signals
to tell dpc_thread to terminate (UNLOADING flag
and kthread_stop).

On setting the UNLOADING flag when dpc_thread happens to
run at the time and sees the flag, this cause dpc_thread
to exit and cleanup itself. When kthread_stop is called
for final cleanup, it cause use after free.

Remove UNLOADING signal to terminate dpc_thread.
Use the kthread_stop as the main signal to exit dpc_thread.
