[PATCH 6.1 044/166] wifi: cfg80211: fix double lock bug in reg_wdev_chan_valid()

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

 



From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 996c3117dae4c02b38a3cb68e5c2aec9d907ec15 upstream.

The locking was changed recently so now the caller holds the wiphy_lock()
lock.  Taking the lock inside the reg_wdev_chan_valid() function will
lead to a deadlock.
