Subject: [PATCH] netlink: Unset cb_running when terminating dump on release
Date: Sat, 15 Feb 2025 09:40:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aff028e3eb2b768b9895fa6349fa1981ae22f098.camel@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250214170631.6badcc24@kernel.org>
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1172 bytes --]
When we terminated the dump, the callback isn't running, so cb_running
should be set to false to be logically consistent.
cb_running signifies whether a dump is ongoing. It is set to true in
cb->start(), and is checked in netlink_dump() to be true initially.
After the dump, it is set to false in the same function.
When we terminate a dump before it ends (see 1904fb9ebf91 ("netlink:
terminate outstanding dump on socket close")), we do not unset the
boolean flag cb_running. This is wrong - since the dump is no longer
running (we terminated it), it must be set to false to convey the
correct state.
