From 01d7dd0e9f8c5f1888619d2649c7da389232b408 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralf Baechle Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2005 10:11:45 -0700 Subject: [AX25]: UID fixes o Brown paperbag bug - ax25_findbyuid() was always returning a NULL pointer as the result. Breaks ROSE completly and AX.25 if UID policy set to deny. o While the list structure of AX.25's UID to callsign mapping table was properly protected by a spinlock, it's elements were not refcounted resulting in a race between removal and usage of an element.
