[patch added to 3.12-stable] bonding: fix bond_arp_rcv() race of curr_active_slave

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

 



From: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 010d3c3989706d800ae72253773fa6537cc9f74c upstream.

bond->curr_active_slave can be changed between its deferences, even to
NULL, and thus we might panic.

We're always holding the rcu (rx_handler->bond_handle_frame()->bond_arp_rcv())
so fix this by rcu_dereferencing() it and using the saved.
