Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
commit f5d4e04634c9cf68bdf23de08ada0bb92e8befe7 upstream.
Patch series "nilfs2: fix log writer related issues".
This bug fix series covers three nilfs2 log writer-related issues, including a timer use-after-free issue and potential deadlock issue on unmount, and a potential freeze issue in event synchronization found during their analysis. Details are described in each commit log.
This patch (of 3):
A use-after-free issue has been reported regarding the timer sc_timer on the nilfs_sc_info structure.
The problem is that even though it is used to wake up a sleeping log writer thread, sc_timer is not shut down until the nilfs_sc_info structure is about to be freed, and is used regardless of the thread's lifetime.
Fix this issue by limiting the use of sc_timer only while the log writer thread is alive.
