Subject: [PATCH net] bonding: fix bond_arp_rcv() race of curr_active_slave
Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2014 12:07:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1392894477-5477-1-git-send-email-vfalico@redhat.com> (raw)

bond->curr_active_slave can be changed between its deferences, even to
NULL, and thus we might panic.

We're always holding the rcu (rx_handler->bond_handle_frame()->bond_arp_rcv())
so fix this by rcu_dereferencing() it and using the saved.

Reported-by: Ding Tianhong <dingtianhong@huawei.com>
Fixes: aeea64a ("bonding: don't trust arp requests unless active slave really works")
