Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/4] bridge: multicast port group RCU fix
Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2010 18:01:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100428010336.237294971@vyatta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100428010103.386761596@vyatta.com

[-- Attachment #1: br-portlist-rcu.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1463 bytes --]

The recently introduced bridge mulitcast port group list was only
partially using RCU correctly. It was missing rcu_dereference()
and missing the necessary barrier on deletion.

The code should have used one of the standard list methods (list or hlist)
instead of open coding a RCU based link list.
