If fc_invoke_resp() returns false then it has already freed *fp. Do not call lport_recv() with a dangling frame pointer. This patch fixes the following crash: general protection fault: 0000 [#3] PREEMPT SMP RIP: fc_lport_recv_req+0x72/0x280 [libfc] Call Trace: fc_exch_recv+0x642/0xde0 [libfc] fcoe_percpu_receive_thread+0x46a/0x5ed [fcoe] kthread+0x10a/0x120 ret_from_fork+0x42/0x70 Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_exch.c | 5 +---- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_exch.c b/drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_exch.c index fb4cc5e..73127af 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_exch.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_exch.c @@ -1503,11 +1503,8 @@ static void fc_exch_recv_req(struct fc_lport *lport, struct fc_exch_mgr *mp, * sequence after this. * * The frame will be freed by the receive function. - * If new exch resp handler is valid then call that - * first. */ - if (!fc_invoke_resp(ep, sp, fp)) - lport->tt.lport_recv(lport, fp); + fc_invoke_resp(ep, sp, fp); fc_exch_release(ep); /* release from lookup */ } else { FC_LPORT_DBG(lport, "exch/seq lookup failed: reject %x\n", -- 2.1.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
