[ Upstream commit 551842446ed695641a00782cd118cbb064a416a1 ] ifmsh->csa is an RCU-protected pointer. The writer context in ieee80211_mesh_finish_csa() is already mutually exclusive with wdev->sdata.mtx, but the RCU checker did not know this. Use rcu_dereference_protected() to avoid a warning. fixes the following warning: [ 12.519089] ============================= [ 12.520042] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage [ 12.520652] 5.1.0-rc7-wt+ #16 Tainted: G W [ 12.521409] ----------------------------- [ 12.521972] net/mac80211/mesh.c:1223 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

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.
