Date: Thu, 31 Dec 2015 16:30:44 -0000 From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de> To: LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...nel.org>, Peter Anvin <hpa@...or.com>, Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@...ux.intel.com>, Joe Lawrence <joe.lawrence@...atus.com>, Jeremiah Mahler <jmmahler@...il.com>, Borislav Petkov <bp@...en8.de>, andy.shevchenko@...il.com, Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net> Subject: [patch 00/14] x86/irq: Plug various vector cleanup races Joe reported a nasty race in the vector cleanup code which results in stale irq descriptors in the vector arrays and a potential use after free. This series addresses this issue, another race which was found and fixed by Jiang related to the same area, plus a cpu hotplug issue which is not related to this. This lot is intended for stable, but not yet marked so. The diffstat below is rather large, but this is mostly due to extensive commentry which I added in the process.
