This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ipv6: make ip6_rt_gc_expire an atomic_t to the 5.17-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: ipv6-make-ip6_rt_gc_expire-an-atomic_t.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.17 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit cfbab119f35df4a923c3c0d4e849c0bfd4a02901 Author: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Apr 13 11:13:33 2022 -0700 ipv6: make ip6_rt_gc_expire an atomic_t [ Upstream commit 9cb7c013420f98fa6fd12fc6a5dc055170c108db ] Reads and Writes to ip6_rt_gc_expire always have been racy, as syzbot reported lately [1] There is a possible risk of under-flow, leading to unexpected high value passed to fib6_run_gc(), although I have not observed this in the field. Hosts hitting ip6_dst_gc() very hard are under pretty bad state anyway.
