Subject: [PATCH] Fix race between proc_get_inode() and remove_proc_entry()
Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 12:01:31 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070307090131.GA6817@localhost.sw.ru> (raw)
proc_lookup remove_proc_entry
=========== =================
lock_kernel();
spin_lock(&proc_subdir_lock);
[find PDE with refcount 0]
spin_unlock(&proc_subdir_lock);
spin_lock(&proc_subdir_lock);
[find PDE with refcount 0]
[check refcount and free PDE]
spin_unlock(&proc_subdir_lock);
proc_get_inode:
de_get(de); /* boom */
