Subject: [PATCH] unserialized task->files changing
Date: Tue, 08 Aug 2006 14:07:49 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44D86275.2080406@sw.ru> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 294 bytes --]
Fixed race on put_files_struct on exec with proc.
Restoring files on current on error path may lead
to proc having a pointer to already kfree-d files_struct.
Found during OpenVZ stress testing.
