From 4982223e51e8ea9d09bb33c8323b5ec1877b2b51 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Wed, 14 May 2014 10:54:19 +0930 Subject: module: set nx before marking module MODULE_STATE_COMING. We currently set RO & NX on modules very late: after we move them from MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED to MODULE_STATE_COMING, and after we call parse_args() (which can exec code in the module). Much better is to do it in complete_formation() and then call the notifier. This means that the notifiers will be called on a module which is already RO & NX, so that may cause problems (ftrace already changed so they're unaffected).
