Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 2/3] ring-buffer: Fix buffer locking in ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set()
Date: Fri, 06 Jun 2025 12:42:31 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250606164353.472136191@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250606164229.056794577@goodmis.org
From: Dmitry Antipov <dmantipov@yandex.ru>
Enlarge the critical section in ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() to
ensure that error handling takes place with per-buffer mutex held,
thus preventing list corruption and other concurrency-related issues.
