Subject: [ 04/38] crypto: cryptd - disable softirqs in cryptd_queue_worker to prevent data corruption
Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2012 16:39:47 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121122003904.738096435@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121122003904.262382971@linuxfoundation.org>

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@mbnet.fi>

commit 9efade1b3e981f5064f9db9ca971b4dc7557ae42 upstream.

cryptd_queue_worker attempts to prevent simultaneous accesses to crypto
workqueue by cryptd_enqueue_request using preempt_disable/preempt_enable.
However cryptd_enqueue_request might be called from softirq context,
so add local_bh_disable/local_bh_enable to prevent data corruption and
panics.

Bug report at http://marc.info/?l=linux-crypto-vger&m=134858649616319&w=2

v2:
 - Disable software interrupts instead of hardware interrupts
