X-Git-Tag: v2.6.21-rc5~72^2 X-Git-Url: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fkernel%2Fgit%2Ftorvalds%2Flinux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=d35690beda1429544d46c8eb34b2e3a8c37ab299 [IPV6]: ipv6_fl_socklist is inadvertently shared. The ipv6_fl_socklist from listening socket is inadvertently shared with new socket created for connection. This leads to a variety of interesting, but fatal, bugs. For example, removing one of the sockets may lead to the other socket's encountering a page fault when the now freed list is referenced. The fix is to not share the flow label list with the new socket. Signed-off-by: Masayuki Nakagawa Signed-off-by: David S.
