The patch titled Subject: nfs42: use a specific kmem_cache to allocate nfs4_xattr_entry has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is nfs42-use-a-specific-kmem_cache-to-allocate-nfs4_xattr_entry.patch This patch should soon appear at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/nfs42-use-a-specific-kmem_cache-to-allocate-nfs4_xattr_entry.patch and later at https://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/nfs42-use-a-specific-kmem_cache-to-allocate-nfs4_xattr_entry.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Muchun Song <songmuchun@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: nfs42: use a specific kmem_cache to allocate nfs4_xattr_entry Fixes a null-pointer deref in nfs4. If we want to add the allocated objects to its list_lru, we should use kmem_cache_alloc_lru() to allocate objects. So intruduce nfs4_xattr_entry_cachep which is used to allocate nfs4_xattr_entry.
