From 83c6119b2a9dac70fd3d5c95c6537cb537172a27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Fleming Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2020 10:54:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 284/323] signal: Prevent double-free of user struct Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.10/older/patches-5.10.215-rt107.tar.xz The way user struct reference counting works changed significantly with, fda31c50292a ("signal: avoid double atomic counter increments for user accounting") Now user structs are only freed once the last pending signal is dequeued. Make sigqueue_free_current() follow this new convention to avoid freeing the user struct multiple times and triggering this warning: refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
