Subject: [PATCH net] tun: fix recovery from gup errors
Date: Sun, 23 Jun 2013 17:19:03 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130623141903.GA21029@redhat.com> (raw)
get user pages might fail partially in tun zero copy
mode. To recover we need to put all pages that we got,
but code used a wrong index resulting in double-free
errors.
Reported-by: Brad Hubbard <bhubbard@redhat.com>
Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

I haven't figured out why do we get failures,
but recovery is clearly wrong.
This is also -stable material.
