[PATCH] tgtd: refresh ready fds of event loop after event deletion

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

 



Current main event loop (event_loop()) of tgtd has a possibility of
segmentation fault. The problem is caused by the below sequence:

1. Event A, B are ready so epoll_wait(2) returns.
2. The handler of the event A is called. In the event handler, the
   event B is deleted with tgt_event_del()
3. event_loop() tries to call the handler of the event B. It causes
   segfault because the event struct is already removed and freed.

For avoid this problem, this patch adds a new global variable
event_need_refresh. If the value of this variable is 1, event_loop()
calls epoll_wait(2) again for refreshing ready fd list. This patch
also lets tgt_event_del() to turn on the flag in its tail. With this
modification, the above segfault is avoided.
