From 2235f2ac75fd2501c251b0b699a9632e80239a6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2015 09:09:13 -0700 Subject: inet: fix races with reqsk timers reqsk_queue_destroy() and reqsk_queue_unlink() should use del_timer_sync() instead of del_timer() before calling reqsk_put(), otherwise we could free a req still used by another cpu. But before doing so, reqsk_queue_destroy() must release syn_wait_lock spinlock or risk a dead lock, as reqsk_timer_handler() might need to take this same spinlock from reqsk_queue_unlink() (called from inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop()) Fixes: fa76ce7328b2 ("inet: get rid of central tcp/dccp listener timer") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
