commit4faa99965eupstream. If io_destroy() gets to cancelling everything that can be cancelled and gets to kiocb_cancel() calling the function driver has left in ->ki_cancel, it becomes vulnerable to a race with IO completion. At that point req is already taken off the list and aio_complete() does *NOT* spin until we (in free_ioctx_users()) releases ->ctx_lock. As the result, it proceeds to kiocb_free(), freing req just it gets passed to ->ki_cancel(). Fix is simple - remove from the list after the call of kiocb_cancel(). All instances of ->ki_cancel() already have to cope with the being called with iocb still on list - that's what happens in io_cancel(2).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
