There is a racing condition between workqueue created when enabling bearer and another thread created when disabling bearer right after that as follow:
enabling_bearer | disabling_bearer
--------------- | ----------------
tipc_disc_timeout() |
{ | bearer_disable()
... | {
schedule_work(&tn->work); | tipc_mon_delete()
... | {
} | ...
| write_lock_bh(&mon->lock);
| mon->self = NULL;
| write_unlock_bh(&mon->lock);
| ...
| }
tipc_net_finalize_work() | }
{ |
... |
tipc_net_finalize() |
{ |
... |
tipc_mon_reinit_self() |
{ |
... |
write_lock_bh(&mon->lock); |
mon->self->addr = tipc_own_addr(net); |
write_unlock_bh(&mon->lock); |
