This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sunrpc: only free unix grouplist after RCU settles to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sunrpc-only-free-unix-grouplist-after-rcu-settles.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit bda4be90583169a516523c007e95c6b2a1e72c40 Author: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Mar 30 14:24:27 2023 -0400 sunrpc: only free unix grouplist after RCU settles [ Upstream commit 5085e41f9e83a1bec51da1f20b54f2ec3a13a3fe ] While the unix_gid object is rcu-freed, the group_info list that it contains is not. Ensure that we only put the group list reference once we are really freeing the unix_gid object.
