From: John Pittman <jpittman@redhat.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v4.20-rc1 commit 22d4c291f58752d14efb8a185b772a3fc3e947d2 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5KSEX CVE: NA -------------------------------- The API surrounding refcount_t should be used in place of atomic_t when variables are being used as reference counters. It can potentially prevent reference counter overflows and use-after-free conditions. In the dm thin layer, one such example is tc->refcount. Change this from the atomic_t API to the refcount_t API to prevent mentioned conditions.
