If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 388a527c6cf55bde74bc0891d0b4c38f50d896be Author: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jun 17 07:54:08 2024 -0400 nfsd: fix oops when reading pool_stats before server is started [ Upstream commit 8e948c365d9c10b685d1deb946bd833d6a9b43e0 ] Sourbh reported an oops that is triggerable by trying to read the pool_stats procfile before nfsd had been started. Move the check for a NULL serv in svc_pool_stats_start above the mutex acquisition, and fix the stop routine not to unlock the mutex if there is no serv yet. Fixes: 7b207ccd9833 ("svc: don't hold reference for poolstats, only mutex.")
