X-Git-Tag: Ubuntu-5.0.0-8.9~11874^2~5^2~1 X-Git-Url: https://git.proxmox.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=42ee19e2939277a5277c307e517ce2d7ba5f0703;p=mirror_ubuntu-disco-kernel.git openvswitch: Fix race. ovs_vport_cmd_dump() did rcu_read_lock() only after getting the datapath, which could have been deleted in between. Resolved by taking rcu_read_lock() before the get_dp() call.
