Subject: [PATCH] vsock/virtio: annotate 'the_virtio_vsock' RCU pointer
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2020 14:12:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200710121243.120096-1-sgarzare@redhat.com> (raw)
Commit 0deab087b16a ("vsock/virtio: use RCU to avoid use-after-free
on the_virtio_vsock") starts to use RCU to protect 'the_virtio_vsock'
pointer, but we forgot to annotate it.
This patch adds the annotation to fix the following sparse errors:
net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c:73:17: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces):
net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport.c:73:17: struct virtio_vsock [noderef] __rcu *
