From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2007 00:21:23 +0000 (-0800) Subject: proc: fix NULL ->i_fop oops X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c2319540cd7330fa9066e5b9b84d357a2c8631a2;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git proc: fix NULL ->i_fop oops proc_kill_inodes() can clear ->i_fop in the middle of vfs_readdir resulting in NULL dereference during "file->f_op->readdir(file, buf, filler)". The solution is to remove proc_kill_inodes() completely: a) we don't have tricky modules implementing their tricky readdir hooks which could keeping this revoke from hell. b) In a situation when module is gone but PDE still alive, standard readdir will return only "." and "..", because pde->next was cleared by remove_proc_entry(). c) the race proc_kill_inode() destined to prevent is not completely fixed, just race window made smaller, because vfs_readdir() is run without sb_lock held and without file_list_lock held. Effectively, ->i_fop is cleared at random moment, which can't fix properly anything.
