Subject: [PATCH] net: Fix module refcount leak in kernel_accept()
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 18:20:46 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <494A23FE.6020305@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

The kernel_accept() does not hold the module refcount of newsock->ops->owner,
so we need __module_get(newsock->ops->owner) code after call kernel_accept()
by hand.
In sunrpc, the module refcount is missing to hold. So this cause kernel panic.

Used following script to reproduct:

while [ 1 ];
do
    mount -t nfs4 192.168.0.19:/ /mnt
    touch /mnt/file
    umount /mnt
    lsmod | grep ipv6
done

This patch fixed the problem by add __module_get(newsock->ops->owner) to
kernel_accept(). So we do not need to used __module_get(newsock->ops->owner)
in every place when used kernel_accept().
