Hi Arjan,
This commit changes the behaviour when calling the hotplug helper from
UMH_WAIT_EXEC to UMH_NO_WAIT. Unfortunately this seems to be causing
occasional segfaults for me. I believe this is caused because the argv
passed to call_usermode_helper is allocated on the stack and so may be
overwritten by the time the actual exec occurs.
Would it be possible to get this commit reverted?
Thanks,
