Wouldn't that be addressed by 48a87cc26c13b68f6cce4e9d769fcb17a6b3e4b8 net: netprio: fd passed in SCM_RIGHTS datagram not set correctly A socket fd passed in a SCM_RIGHTS datagram was not getting updated with the new tasks cgrp prioidx. This leaves IO on the socket tagged with the old tasks priority. To fix this add a check in the scm recvmsg path to update the sock cgrp prioidx with the new tasks value. As I read this this should work for net_prio. > Similar with cls cgroup. but not for cls_cgroup because I forgot to apply that fix as well. Just a sec, about to send a patch for this.
