From ed75ccbe26f4a672a41556120390e67c80a2c441 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marek Lindner Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2011 14:33:51 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: Correct rcu refcounting for batman_if It might be possible that 2 threads access the same data in the same rcu grace period. The first thread calls call_rcu() to decrement the refcount and free the data while the second thread increases the refcount to use the data. To avoid this race condition all refcount operations have to be atomic. Reported-by: Sven Eckelmann Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner --- Reading git-format-patch failed
