Subject: [PATCH] Fix use-after-free with log and quotas
Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2008 18:41:07 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48CA2B23.4020405@sgi.com> (raw)

Destroying the quota stuff on unmount can access the log - ie XFS_QM_DONE()
ends up in xfs_dqunlock() which calls xfs_trans_unlocked_item() and then
xfs_log_move_tail().  By this time the log has already been destroyed.
Just move the cleanup of the quota code earlier in xfs_unmountfs() before
the call to xfs_log_unmount().  Moving XFS_QM_DONE() up near
XFS_QM_DQPURGEALL() seems like a good spot.
