[PATCH master 2/3] fs: devfs: restore cdev reference count maintenance

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

 



barebox v2024.03.0 moves the reference count maintenance into
cdev_open/cdev_close, but missed to switch devfs_open and devfs_close to
actually use cdev_open/cdev_close. The result was that the cdev could be
deleted, e.g. due to partition reparsing, and further use of the file
descriptor would result in a use-after-free.

Fix this by doing what the commit introducing the breakage was purported
to do.

Fixes: d84c3daf1314 ("fs: move cdev open count to cdev_open()/cdev_close()")
