Subject: [05/08] [IPSEC]: Do not hold state lock while checking size
Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2005 09:47:27 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050405164726.GF17299@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20050405164539.GA17299@kroah.com>
-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
This patch from Herbert Xu fixes a deadlock with IPsec.
When an ICMP frag. required is sent and the ICMP message
needs the same SA as the packet that caused it the state
will be locked twice.
[IPSEC]: Do not hold state lock while checking size.
This can elicit ICMP message output and thus result in a
deadlock.
