This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled inet6: Remove inet6_destroy_sock() in sk->sk_prot->destroy(). to the 5.4-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: inet6-remove-inet6_destroy_sock-in-sk-sk_prot-destroy.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From b5fc29233d28be7a3322848ebe73ac327559cdb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2022 15:35:59 -0700 Subject: inet6: Remove inet6_destroy_sock() in sk->sk_prot->destroy(). From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> commit b5fc29233d28be7a3322848ebe73ac327559cdb9 upstream. After commit d38afeec26ed ("tcp/udp: Call inet6_destroy_sock() in IPv6 sk->sk_destruct()."), we call inet6_destroy_sock() in sk->sk_destruct() by setting inet6_sock_destruct() to it to make sure we do not leak inet6-specific resources. Now we can remove unnecessary inet6_destroy_sock() calls in sk->sk_prot->destroy(). DCCP and SCTP have their own sk->sk_destruct() function, so we change them separately in the following patches.
