From c3a47ab3e5ad62601449e4e5401352271b777e28 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2007 11:09:19 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [NETFILTER]: Properly use RCU in nf_ct_attach Use rcu_assign_pointer/rcu_dereference for ip_ct_attach pointer instead of self-made RCU and use rcu_read_lock to make sure the conntrack module doesn't disappear below us while calling it, since this function can be called from outside the netfilter hooks.
