This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled dm io: fix a race condition in the wake up code for sync_io to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From b481db38edc0bf3a1bb9c53203bb86676f7e157a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Thornber <thornber@redhat.com> Date: Fri, 27 Jun 2014 15:29:04 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 32/41] dm io: fix a race condition in the wake up code for sync_io commit 10f1d5d111e8aed46a0f1179faf9a3cf422f689e upstream. There's a race condition between the atomic_dec_and_test(&io->count) in dec_count() and the waking of the sync_io() thread. If the thread is spuriously woken immediately after the decrement it may exit, making the on stack io struct invalid, yet the dec_count could still be using it. Fix this race by using a completion in sync_io() and dec_count().
