[PATCH 147/270] libceph: avoid NULL kref_put when osd reset races with alloc_msg

From: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski
Date: Mon Nov 26 2012 - 12:08:59 EST


3.5.7u1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sage Weil <sage@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9bd952615a42d7e2ce3fa2c632e808e804637a1a upstream.

The ceph_on_in_msg_alloc() method drops con->mutex while it allocates a
message. If that races with a timeout that resends a zillion messages and
resets the connection, and the ->alloc_msg() method returns a NULL message,
it will call ceph_msg_put(NULL) and BUG.

Fix by only calling put if msg is non-NULL.

Fixes http://tracker.newdream.net/issues/3142
