Subject: [PATCH 0/3] target: Fix two races leading to use-after-free
Date: Mon, 13 May 2013 16:30:04 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1368477007-25274-1-git-send-email-joern@logfs.org> (raw)
In our testing we've encountered use-after-free bugs, usually in the
shape of double list_del, at a rate of 2-10 per week. Patches 2 and 3
fix two races that can both lead to use-after-free and after applying
both of those patches, we have been bug-free for some weeks now.
Patch 1 is an unrelated trivial cleanup. I just happened to spot it
while I was in the area.
Joern Engel (3):
target: removed unused transport_state flag
target: close target_put_sess_cmd() vs. core_tmr_abort_task() race v5
target: simplify target_wait_for_sess_cmds()
