From 392741e0a4e17c82e3978b7fcbf04291294dc0a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darren Hart Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2009 15:20:48 -0700 Subject: futex: Fix handling of bad requeue syscall pairing If futex_requeue(requeue_pi=1) finds a futex_q that was created by a call other the futex_wait_requeue_pi(), the q.rt_waiter may be null. If so, this will result in an oops from the following call graph: futex_requeue() rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() waiter->task dereference OOPS We currently WARN_ON() if this is detected, clearly this is inadequate. If we detect a mispairing in futex_requeue(), bail out, seding -EINVAL to user-space. V2: Fix parenthesis warnings.
