Subject: [PATCH] net: fix a race in sock_queue_err_skb()
Date: Fri, 06 Apr 2012 10:49:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1333702150.5312.23.camel@edumazet-glaptop> (raw)
As soon as an skb is queued into socket error queue, another thread
can consume it, so we are not allowed to reference skb anymore, or risk
use after free.
