ChangeSet 1.1259.3.3, 2003/06/05 12:45:18-07:00, aschultz at warp10.net [PATCH] I2C: fix unsafe usage of list_for_each in i2c-core i2c-core.c contains 2 loops that iterate over the list of the clients attached to an adapter and detaches them. Detaching the clients will actually remove them from the list the loop is iterating over. Therefore the list_for_each_safe() method has to be used. drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c | 9 ++++----- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff -Nru a/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c b/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c --- a/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c Thu Jun 5 13:50:05 2003 +++ b/drivers/i2c/i2c-core.c Thu Jun 5 13:50:05 2003 @@ -124,7 +124,7 @@ int i2c_del_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adap) { - struct list_head *item; + struct list_head *item, *_n; struct i2c_driver *driver; struct i2c_client *client; int res = 0; @@ -144,7 +144,7 @@ /* detach any active clients.
