Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix sched_priv corruption in ARINC653 alloc_vdata.
Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 16:47:52 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383252473-3067-2-git-send-email-nate.studer@dornerworks.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1383252473-3067-1-git-send-email-nate.studer@dornerworks.com>
From: Nathan Studer <nate.studer@dornerworks.com>
The ARINC653 scheduler was directly assigning and manipulating
the sched_priv field of a vcpu in its alloc_vdata function.
When creating a cpu pool, this resulted in the corruption
of the sched_priv field of the vcpu, which was then passed
to the initial scheduler's free_vdata function with
disastrous results.
