[PATCH 3.12 006/142] futex: Unlock hb->lock in futex_wait_requeue_pi() error path

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

 



From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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

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

commit 13c42c2f43b19aab3195f2d357db00d1e885eaa8 upstream.

futex_wait_requeue_pi() calls futex_wait_setup(). If
futex_wait_setup() succeeds it returns with hb->lock held and
preemption disabled. Now the sanity check after this does:

        if (match_futex(&q.key, &key2)) {
	   	ret = -EINVAL;
		goto out_put_keys;
	}

which releases the keys but does not release hb->lock.

So we happily return to user space with hb->lock held and therefor
preemption disabled.

Unlock hb->lock before taking the exit route.
