From 6ada3b8a069822380ed27d8ac3c35b80b58f020a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Karsten Graul Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2019 18:51:02 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net/smc: prevent races between smc_lgr_terminate() and smc_conn_free() To prevent races between smc_lgr_terminate() and smc_conn_free() add an extra check of the lgr field before accessing it, and cancel a delayed free_work when a new smc connection is created. This fixes the problem that free_work cleared the lgr variable but smc_lgr_terminate() or smc_conn_free() still access it in parallel.
