[PATCH] mac80211: fix possible tid_rx->reorder_timer use after free

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

 



Is possible that we will arm the tid_rx->reorder_timer after
del_timer_sync() in ___ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session(). We need to stop
timer after RCU grace period finish, so move it to
ieee80211_free_tid_rx(). Timer will not be armed again, as
rcu_dereference(sta->ampdu_mlme.tid_rx[tid]) will return NULL.

Debug object detected problem with the following warning:
ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint: sta_rx_agg_reorder_timer_expired+0x0/0xf0 [mac80211]
