[PATCH] MD: raid1 s/sysfs_notify_dirent/sysfs_notify_dirent_safe

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

 



If device-mapper creates a RAID1 array that includes devices to
be rebuilt, it will deref a NULL pointer when finished because
sysfs is not used by device-mapper instantiated RAID devices.
