From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> If a client dies while we're waiting for an ACK from it, then wmediumd_api_handler() will call wmediumd_remove_client() and free the client, even while we're still waiting for it to respond in wmediumd_wait_for_client_ack(). This leads then to wmediumd_wait_for_client_ack() using the data after it was already freed, and we also get stuck. Fix this by deferring the free to the outermost loop, instead just setting wait_for_ack=false whenever we find that we have to free a client. All client iterations (that can call back into the loop) then must use _safe() in order to not use the 'next' pointer after the client was removed (and the pointer poisoned). --- wmediumd/wmediumd.c | 22 +++++++++++++++++----- wmediumd/wmediumd.h | 2 +- 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)
