From ef62adae82524c745640850f62ab0dfe0b580c9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Wed, 18 May 2016 15:47:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] greybus: operation: fix broken activation logic An operation should only be added to the connection active list if the connection is in the enabled state, or if it is in the enabled_tx state and the operation is not incoming. This fixes a race where an early or late incoming request could be added to the active list while the connection is being enabled or disabled, something which could lead to use-after-free issues or worse. Note that the early connection-state checks in the receive path limited the impact of this bug.
