[PATCH] megaraid: fix use of delayed work

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

 



megaraid use INIT_WORK to declare a hotplug_work, but cast the hotplug_work
from work_struct to delayed_work and schedule_delayed_work on it. This is
very dangerous, as other part of delayed_work might be kernel memories allocated
by others.

With commit 8852aac, schedule_delayed_work() will check dwork->timer before
queue_work, this will cause megaraid code to hit the BUG_ON in workqueue code.
Change megaraid code to use delayed work.
