This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled bonding: fix suspicious RCU usage in bond_ipsec_del_sa() to the 5.13-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: bonding-fix-suspicious-rcu-usage-in-bond_ipsec_del_s.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.13 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit f41062b5a4253e1453928bee2390321bfb4033bd Author: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 5 15:38:10 2021 +0000 bonding: fix suspicious RCU usage in bond_ipsec_del_sa() [ Upstream commit a22c39b831a081da9b2c488bd970a4412d926f30 ] To dereference bond->curr_active_slave, it uses rcu_dereference(). But it and the caller doesn't acquire RCU so a warning occurs. So add rcu_read_lock().
