Subject: autofs4: catatonic_mode vs. notify_daemon race
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8753333266be67ff3a984ac1f6566d31c260bee4;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

autofs4: catatonic_mode vs. notify_daemon race

we need to hold ->wq_mutex while we are forming the packet to send,
lest we have autofs4_catatonic_mode() setting wq->name.name to NULL
just as autofs4_notify_daemon() decides to memcpy() from it...

We do have check for catatonic mode immediately after that (under
->wq_mutex, as it ought to be) and packet won't be actually sent,
but it'll be too late for us if we oops on that memcpy() from NULL...

Fix is obvious - just extend the area covered by ->wq_mutex over
that switch and check whether it's catatonic *before* doing anything
else.
