[PATCH 3.5 71/96] sched: Fix cfs_bandwidth misuse of hrtimer_expires_remaining

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

 



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

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

From: Ben Segall <bsegall@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit db06e78cc13d70f10877e0557becc88ab3ad2be8 upstream.

hrtimer_expires_remaining does not take internal hrtimer locks and thus
must be guarded against concurrent __hrtimer_start_range_ns (but
returning HRTIMER_RESTART is safe). Use cfs_b->lock to make it safe.
