commit 240b4cc8fd5db138b675297d4226ec46594d9b3b upstream. Once we unlock adapter->hw_lock in pvscsi_queue_lck() nothing prevents just queued scsi_cmnd from completing and freeing the request. Thus cmd->cmnd[0] dereference can dereference already freed request leading to kernel crashes or other issues (which one of our customers observed). Store cmd->cmnd[0] in a local variable before unlocking adapter->hw_lock to fix the issue. CC: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Ewan D.

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.
