From: Jeff Layton Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2014 14:18:44 +0000 (-0400) Subject: locks: close potential race in lease_get_mtime X-Git-Tag: v3.18-rc1~90^2~14 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bfe8602436c803c6d5e271d52cd985d491a7470a;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-exynos.git locks: close potential race in lease_get_mtime lease_get_mtime is called without the i_lock held, so there's no guarantee about the stability of the list. Between the time when we assign "flock" and then dereference it to check whether it's a lease and for write, the lease could be freed. Ensure that that doesn't occur by taking the i_lock before trying to check the lease. Cc: J.
