Subject: fix locking unbalance in irda_sendmsg
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2011 18:12:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110412221254.GA23906@redhat.com> (raw)
5b40964eadea40509d353318d2c82e8b7bf5e8a5 introduced a path where
we have a locking unbalance. If we pass invalid flags, we unlock
a socket we never locked, resulting in this...
=====================================
[ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
-------------------------------------
trinity/20101 is trying to release lock (sk_lock-AF_IRDA) at:
[<ffffffffa057f001>] irda_sendmsg+0x207/0x21d [irda]
but there are no more locks to release!
other info that might help us debug this:
no locks held by trinity/20101.
stack backtrace:
Pid: 20101, comm: trinity Not tainted 2.6.39-rc3+ #3
