From a92e5eb1103341e985a575e48e26f87fbb9b1679 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2014 07:18:04 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] sunrpc: fix potential race between setting use_gss_proxy and the upcall rpc_clnt An nfsd thread can call use_gss_proxy and find it set to '1' but find gssp_clnt still NULL, so that when it attempts the upcall the result will be an unnecessary -EIO. So, ensure that gssp_clnt is created first, and set the use_gss_proxy variable only if that succeeds. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: J.
