Subject: [PATCH net 0/3] macsec: reference counting fixes
Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2016 15:37:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1469782905.git.sd@queasysnail.net> (raw)
Patch 1 adds explicit reference counting on RXSCs, instead of the
current implicit reference counting using the RXSA's refcount.
Patch 2 fixes possible kernel panics during module unload caused by an
RCU callback that schedules another RCU callback, which the
rcu_barrier() added in b196c22af5c3 ("macsec: add rcu_barrier() on
module exit") didn't protect against.
Patch 3 fixes a refcounting issue with the underlying device for a
macsec device when link creation fails.
Sabrina Dubroca (3):
macsec: fix reference counting on RXSC in macsec_handle_frame
macsec: RXSAs don't need to hold a reference on RXSCs
macsec: fix negative refcnt on parent link
