Subject: [PATCH] net: Fix IP_MULTICAST_IF
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2009 18:41:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ADC96D6.4000909@gmail.com> (raw)

ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls.

This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader
could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop.

Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put().

If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index()
function to avoid touching dev refcount.
