Subject: [PATCH 1/2][INET] Fix potential kfree on vmalloc-ed area of request_sock_queue
Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2007 21:08:29 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <473B399D.2040004@openvz.org> (raw)

The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it 
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in 
the reqsk_queue_destroy().

However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls 
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called 
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally. 

Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as 
it looks too big to be inline.
