From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2013 15:42:40 +0000 (+0000) Subject: veth: avoid a NULL deref in veth_stats_one X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d0e2c55e7c940;p=linux-beck.git veth: avoid a NULL deref in veth_stats_one commit 2681128f0ced8a (veth: extend device features) added a NULL deref in veth_stats_one(), as veth_get_stats64() was not testing if the peer device was setup or not. At init time, we call dev_get_stats() before veth pair is fully setup.

Adding RCU protection is a safe and well documented way to make sure we don't access about to be freed or already freed data.
