Subject: drivers/infiniband/ulp/ipoib/ipoib_main.c: use-after-free
Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2007 10:23:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070319092310.GJ752@stusta.de> (raw)
The Coverity checker spotted the following code introduced by
commit 839fcaba355abaffb7b44f0f4504093acb0b11cf:
<-- snip -->
...
static void path_rec_completion(int status,
struct ib_sa_path_rec *pathrec,
void *path_ptr)
{
...
list_for_each_entry(neigh, &path->neigh_list, list) {
kref_get(&path->ah->ref);
neigh->ah = path->ah;
memcpy(&neigh->dgid.raw, &path->pathrec.dgid.raw,
sizeof(union ib_gid));
if (ipoib_cm_enabled(dev, neigh->neighbour)) {
if (!ipoib_cm_get(neigh))
ipoib_cm_set(neigh, ipoib_cm_create_tx(dev,
path,
neigh));
if (!ipoib_cm_get(neigh)) {
list_del(&neigh->list);
if (neigh->ah)
ipoib_put_ah(neigh->ah);
ipoib_neigh_free(dev, neigh);
continue;
}
}
while ((skb = __skb_dequeue(&neigh->queue)))
__skb_queue_tail(&skqueue, skb);
}
...
<-- snip -->
Notice that before the continue "neigh" gets freed, but the
list_for_each_entry() for() loop uses it.
