Subject: [RESEND PATCH v2] modules: wait do_free_init correctly
Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2024 10:03:04 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240129020304.1981372-1-changbin.du@huawei.com> (raw)
The commit 1a7b7d922081 ("modules: Use vmalloc special flag") moves
do_free_init() into a global workqueue instead of call_rcu(). So now
rcu_barrier() can not ensure that do_free_init has completed. We should
wait it via flush_work().
Without this fix, we still could encounter false positive reports in
W+X checking, and rcu synchronization is unnecessary.
Fixes: 1a7b7d922081 ("modules: Use vmalloc special flag")
