Subject: [PATCH 2/3] [S390] net: convert lcs_reply.refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t
Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2017 10:47:49 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1508485670-24070-3-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1508485670-24070-1-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com>

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference
counters with the following properties:
 - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set()
 - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero
 - once counter reaches zero, its further
   increments aren't allowed
 - counter schema uses basic atomic operations
   (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.)

Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided
refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows
and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows
can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable.

The variable lcs_reply.refcnt is used as pure reference counter.
Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations.
