If the bf_get() call in lpfc_mbx_cmpl_rdp_page_a2() does succeeds, execution
continues normally and mp gets kfree()d.

If the subsequent call to lpfc_sli_issue_mbox() fails execution jumps to the
error label where lpfc_mbuf_free() is called with mp->virt and mp->phys as
function arguments. This is the use after free. Following the use after free mp
gets kfree()d again which is a double free.

OK,

Is it already in James' tree (haven't checked)? The problematic code was
merged for 4.2-rc1 so if the fix (Collin's or mine I don't care) could go
in while we're still in the rc phase, we could avoid all that stable
circus.

Thanks for digging this out.

Byte,
        Johannes

It is not yet in scsi.git.

James S., Dick, which patch do you prefer?

I looked at both and liked Johannes patch better.
