From 1176e83aff6f15b6ae4d1b53c16124884ad29363 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Sun, 18 Jan 2009 18:17:20 +0100 Subject: Staging: android: task_get_unused_fd_flags: fix the wrong usage of tsk->signal MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Compile tested. task_struct->signal is not protected by RCU, the code is bogus. Change the code to take ->siglock to pin ->signal.
