[PATCH] wifi: cfg80211: make hash table duplicates more survivable

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Jiazi Li reported that they occasionally see hash table duplicates
as evidenced by the WARN_ON() in rb_insert_bss() in this code.  It
isn't clear how that happens, nor have I been able to reproduce it,
but if it does happen, the kernel crashes later, when it tries to
unhash the entry that's now not hashed.

Try to make this situation more survivable by removing the BSS from
the list(s) as well, that way it's fully leaked here (as had been
the intent in the hash insert error path), and no longer reachable
through the list(s) so it shouldn't be unhashed again later.
