[PATCH 5.4 041/138] vsock/virtio: annotate the_virtio_vsock RCU pointer

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

[ Upstream commit f961134a612c793d5901a93d85a29337c74af978 ]

Commit 0deab087b16a ("vsock/virtio: use RCU to avoid use-after-free
on the_virtio_vsock") starts to use RCU to protect 'the_virtio_vsock'
pointer, but we forgot to annotate it.

This patch adds the annotation to fix the following sparse errors:

    net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c:73:17:    struct virtio_vsock [noderef] __rcu *
