Its more a cosmetic thing since we rely on all netfilter hooks being rcu_read_lock()ed by nf_hook_slow() in many places anyways. > I chose to not just extend the first RCU protected area but putting > the rcu_read_unlock() down, because there is a 'return' in between. I'd suggest to do that since your patch still doesn't cover the direct_rtp nf_nat_sdp_port_hook dereference. Actually with your patch we have unbalanced RCU locking since the direct_rtp case contains a "goto err1". > > Signed-off-by: Holger Eitzenberger <holger.eitzenberger@xxxxxxxxxx> > > Index: net-next/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_sip.c > =================================================================== > --- net-next.orig/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_sip.c > +++ net-next/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_sip.c > @@ -983,6 +983,7 @@ static int set_expected_rtp_rtcp(struct > if (skip_expect) > return NF_ACCEPT; > > + rcu_read_lock(); > rtp_exp = nf_ct_expect_alloc(ct); > if (rtp_exp == NULL) > goto err1; > @@ -1012,6 +1013,7 @@ static int set_expected_rtp_rtcp(struct > err2: > nf_ct_expect_put(rtp_exp); > err1: > + rcu_read_unlock(); > return ret; > } > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
