Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2014 17:11:08 -0700 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Li Zefan <lizefan@...wei.com>, Tejun Heo <tj@...nel.org> Subject: [PATCH 3.4 17/35] cpuset: fix a race condition in __cpuset_node_allowed_softwall() 3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Li Zefan <lizefan@...wei.com> commit 99afb0fd5f05aac467ffa85c36778fec4396209b upstream. It's not safe to access task's cpuset after releasing task_lock(). Holding callback_mutex won't help.
