[PATCH] 9p/trans_virtio: fix hot-unplug

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

 



On device hot-unplug, 9p/virtio currently will kfree channel while
it might still be in use.

Of course, it might stay used forever, so it's an extremely ugly hack,
but it seems better than use-after-free that we have now.
