Subject: x25_create initializing socket data twice ...
Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2005 02:14:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050303011413.GB11516@mail.13thfloor.at> (raw)


Hi Folks!

x25_create() [net/x25/af_x25.c] is calling sock_init_data()
twice ... once indirectly via x25_alloc_socket() and a
second time directly via sock_init_data(sock, sk);

while this might not look as critical as it seems, it can
easily break stuff which assumes that sock_init_data()
isn't called twice on the same socket ...

maybe something like this might be appropriate?
