[PATCH 5/5] netfilter: ctnetlink: fix module auto-load in ctnetlink_parse_nat

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

 



From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

(c7232c9 netfilter: add protocol independent NAT core) added
incorrect locking for the module auto-load case in ctnetlink_parse_nat.

That function is always called from ctnetlink_create_conntrack which
requires no locking.
