X-Git-Tag: v4.9.8~1051^2~9
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=37df49f433bc3a11f5716fe65aaec5189c6402cb;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi3.git

mm: kmemleak: ensure that the task stack is not freed during scanning

Commit 68f24b08ee89 ("sched/core: Free the stack early if
CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK") may cause the task->stack to be freed
during kmemleak_scan() execution, leading to either a NULL pointer fault
(if task->stack is NULL) or kmemleak accessing already freed memory.

This patch uses the new try_get_task_stack() API to ensure that the task
stack is not freed during kmemleak stack scanning.

Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173901.

Fixes: 68f24b08ee89 ("sched/core: Free the stack early if CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK")
