Subject: [PATCH 1/2] megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work
Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2012 07:54:34 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121204155434.GE3885@mtj.dyndns.org> (raw)

megaraid use INIT_WORK to declare a hotplug_work, but cast the
hotplug_work from work_struct to delayed_work and
schedule_delayed_work on it. This is very dangerous, as other part of
delayed_work might be kernel memories allocated by others.
With commit 8852aac ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue
timer on 0 delay"), schedule_delayed_work() will check dwork->timer
before queue_work even when @delay is 0, this causes megaraid code to
hit the BUG_ON() in workqueue code. Change megaraid code to use
delayed work.
