This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled phonet/pep: fix racy skb_queue_empty() use to the 6.1-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: phonet-pep-fix-racy-skb_queue_empty-use.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6dc94850c4e644c3186f1b1dbd8b577769ea3b4a Author: Rémi Denis-Courmont <courmisch@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Feb 18 10:12:14 2024 +0200 phonet/pep: fix racy skb_queue_empty() use [ Upstream commit 7d2a894d7f487dcb894df023e9d3014cf5b93fe5 ] The receive queues are protected by their respective spin-lock, not the socket lock. This could lead to skb_peek() unexpectedly returning NULL or a pointer to an already dequeued socket buffer.
