[PATCH 4.4 25/28] hv: dont reset hv_context.tsc_page on crash

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

 



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

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

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 56ef6718a1d8d77745033c5291e025ce18504159 upstream.

It may happen that secondary CPUs are still alive and resetting
hv_context.tsc_page will cause a consequent crash in read_hv_clock_tsc()
as we don't check for it being not NULL there. It is safe as we're not
freeing this page anyways.
