[PATCH 4.8 69/96] IB/cma: Fix a race condition in iboe_addr_get_sgid()

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

 



4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit fba332b079029c2f4f7e84c1c1cd8e3867310c90 upstream.

Code that dereferences the struct net_device ip_ptr member must be
protected with an in_dev_get() / in_dev_put() pair. Hence insert
calls to these functions.

Fixes: commit 7b85627b9f02 ("IB/cma: IBoE (RoCE) IP-based GID addressing")
