Subject: [patch 2/3] af_iucv: broken send_skb_q results in endless loop
Date: Thu, 07 Feb 2008 15:28:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080207143534.085581000@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20080207142842.852003000@linux.vnet.ibm.com
[-- Attachment #1: 713-afiucv.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1472 bytes --]
From: Ursula Braun <braunu@de.ibm.com>
A race has been detected in iucv_callback_txdone().
skb_unlink has to be done inside the locked area.
In addition checkings for successful allocations are inserted.
