Subject: [PATCH v2.6.34-rc5 07/12] KEYS: Fix an RCU warning in the reading of user keys
Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 12:43:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272051810-11249-7-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100423194255.GE2589@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Fix an RCU warning in the reading of user keys:

===================================================
[ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
---------------------------------------------------
security/keys/user_defined.c:202 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
1 lock held by keyctl/3637:
 #0:  (&key->sem){+++++.}, at: [<ffffffff811a80ae>] keyctl_read_key+0x9c/0xcf

stack backtrace:
Pid: 3637, comm: keyctl Not tainted 2.6.34-rc5-cachefs #18
Call Trace:
