[PATCH 2/2] sg: fix races with ioctl(SG_IO)

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

 



sg_io_owned needs to be set before the command is sent to the midlevel;
otherwise, a quickly-completing command may cause a different CPU
to see "srp->done == 1 && !srp->sg_io_owned", which would lead to
incorrect behavior.

Check srp->done and set srp->orphan while holding rq_list_lock to
prevent races with sg_rq_end_io().

Same as before, just rediffed against v4 of the previous patch.
