From 464691bd52b46a565153ec2a3b8b9984dacd4a00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ilya Dryomov Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2016 09:57:57 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] libceph: ceph_build_auth() doesn't need ceph_auth_build_hello() A static bug finder (EBA) on Linux 4.7: Double lock in net/ceph/auth.c second lock at 108: mutex_lock(& ac->mutex); [ceph_auth_build_hello] after calling from 263: ret = ceph_auth_build_hello(ac, msg_buf, msg_len); if ! ac->protocol -> true at 262 first lock at 261: mutex_lock(& ac->mutex); [ceph_build_auth] ceph_auth_build_hello() is never called, because the protocol is always initialized, whether we are checking existing tickets (in delayed_work()) or getting new ones after invalidation (in invalidate_authorizer()).
