Subject: double unlock in rng_dev_read()
Date: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 15:15:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091223131552.GA17923@bicker> (raw)

It seems like we unlock rng_mutex twice (2.6.33-rc1).

drivers/char/hw_random/core.c
   151                  mutex_unlock(&rng_mutex);
   152
   153                  if (need_resched())
   154                          schedule_timeout_interruptible(1);
   155
   156                  if (signal_pending(current)) {
   157                          err = -ERESTARTSYS;
   158                          goto out;
   159                  }
   160          }
   161  out_unlock:
   162          mutex_unlock(&rng_mutex);
 
regards,
dan carpenter
