[PATCH V4 0/3] livepatch: cleanup kpl_patch kobject release

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

 



Hello,

The 1st patch moves module_put() to release handler of klp_patch
kobject.

The 2nd patch changes to free klp_patch and other kobjects without
klp_mutex.

The 3rd patch switches to synchronous kobject release for klp_patch.


V4:
	- add freeing klp_patch after klp_enable_patch() returns, since
	patch still can be freed there in case of ->replace is set

V3:
	- one line fix on check of list_empty() in enabled_store(), 3/3

V2:
	- remove enabled attribute before deleting this klp_patch kobject,
	for avoiding deadlock in deleting me


Ming Lei (3):
  livepatch: remove 'struct completion finish' from klp_patch
  livepatch: free klp_patch object without holding klp_mutex
  livepatch: free klp_patch object synchronously
