From 45122ca26ced7fae41049326a3797a73f961db2e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Graf Date: Thu, 6 Dec 2012 09:25:05 +0000 Subject: sctp: Add RCU protection to assoc->transport_addr_list peer.transport_addr_list is currently only protected by sk_sock which is inpractical to acquire for procfs dumping purposes. This patch adds RCU protection allowing for the procfs readers to enter RCU read-side critical sections. Modification of the list continues to be serialized via sk_lock. V2: Use list_del_rcu() in sctp_association_free() to be safe Skip transports marked dead when dumping for procfs Cc: Vlad Yasevich Cc: Neil Horman Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf Acked-by: Vlad Yasevich Acked-by: Neil Horman Signed-off-by: David S.
