Hello,
The following program triggers use-after-free:
Forget to mention that you need to run it in a tight parallel loop. It takes around 5 minutes to reproduce for me.
Hmm, this again is a bug that is difficult to trigger... At least, I couldn't reproduce locally. How many processes are you running with stress program?
It seems that there is nothing more than opening /dev/audio and does some mmap in the job. Is there any other relevant thing there?
Also, this assumes that the first sound card is Dummy driver, right? Check /proc/asound/cards.
If it's about snd-dummy driver, one blind shot would be a patch like below. But even if it would fix, it doesn't explain why it's triggered in that way...
thanks,
Takashi

Yes, this seems to fix it. I've stressed it for an hour with several reproducers. If I am not mistaken, it also makes test cases run 15% faster. Please mail a patch.
