Subject: [PATCH 2.6.25] RDMA/IWCM: don't access the cm_id after dereferencing it.
Date: Tue, 04 Mar 2008 16:44:52 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080304224451.8548.33855.stgit@dell3.ogc.int> (raw)
RDMA/IWCM: don't access the cm_id after dereferencing it.
cm_work_handler() can access cm_id_priv after it was potentially freed
by iwch_deref_id(). The fix is to note whether IWCM_F_CALLBACK_DESTROY
is set before dereferencing. Then if it was set, free the cm_id on
this thread.
