From ba21611c9c0031ca8388cae5e43b38c29c8b595d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Kerr Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2008 14:27:10 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ps3fb: prevent use after free of fb_info In ps3fb_shutdown, freeing the framebuffer will cause fb_info (in dev->core.driver_data) to be free()ed, which we potentially access from the ps3fbd kthread. This change frees the framebuffer after stopping the ps3fbd kthread.
