From 0d89d7944fead211422e21fb7ea70ed3b903a79e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2008 22:35:21 -0800 Subject: [DECNET] ROUTE: fix rcu_dereference() uses in /proc/net/decnet_cache In dn_rt_cache_get_next(), no need to guard seq->private by a rcu_dereference() since seq is private to the thread running this function. Reading seq.private once (as guaranted bu rcu_dereference()) or several time if compiler really is dumb enough wont change the result. But we miss real spots where rcu_dereference() are needed, both in dn_rt_cache_get_first() and dn_rt_cache_get_next() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
