Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: fix a bug accessing freed memory in ext4_abort
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2008 16:37:09 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49056FA5.7070202@hitachi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <49056D29.2010700@hitachi.com>
Vegard Nossum reported a bug which accesses freed memory. When
journal has been aborted, ext4_put_super() calls ext4_abort() after
freeing the journal_t object, and then ext4_abort() accesses it.
This patch fix it.
