From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Jia-Ju Bai Subject: [PATCH] net: 8390: Fix possible data races in __ei_get_stats Date: Mon, 7 May 2018 22:08:09 +0800 Message-ID: <20180507140809.28847-1-baijiaju1990@gmail.com> Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Jia-Ju Bai To: davem@davemloft.net, fthain@telegraphics.com.au, joe@perches.com Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org The write operations to "dev->stats" are protected by the spinlock on line 862-864, but the read operations to this data on line 858 and 867 are not protected by the spinlock. Thus, there may exist data races for "dev->stats". To fix the data races, the read operations to "dev->stats" are protected by the spinlock, and a local variable is used for return.
