From 7b1485bab9c49b0d3811d72beb0de60c7b8b337d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2014 12:56:59 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] md/raid5: use ->lock to protect accessing raid5 sysfs attributes. It is important that mddev->private isn't freed while a sysfs attribute function is accessing it. So use mddev->lock to protect the setting of ->private to NULL, and take that lock when checking ->private for NULL and de-referencing it in the sysfs access functions. This only applies to the read ('show') side of access. Write access will be handled separately. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown --- Reading git-format-patch failed
