This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/sched: cls_u32: replace int refcounts with proper refcounts to the 6.6-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: net-sched-cls_u32-replace-int-refcounts-with-proper-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit b40f65f4ac00a32f631edd6879be949581ab0559 Author: Pedro Tammela <pctammela@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Nov 14 11:18:55 2023 -0300 net/sched: cls_u32: replace int refcounts with proper refcounts [ Upstream commit 6b78debe1c07e6aa3c91ca0b1384bf3cb8217c50 ] Proper refcounts will always warn splat when something goes wrong, be it underflow, saturation or object resurrection. As these are always a source of bugs, use it in cls_u32 as a safeguard to prevent/catch issues. Another benefit is that the refcount API self documents the code, making clear when transitions to dead are expected. For such an update we had to make minor adaptations on u32 to fit the refcount API. First we set explicitly to '1' when objects are created, then the objects are alive until a 1 -> 0 happens, which is then released appropriately. The above made clear some redundant operations in the u32 code around the root_ht handling that were removed. The root_ht is created with a refcnt set to 1. Then when it's associated with tcf_proto it increments the refcnt to 2. Throughout the entire code the root_ht is an exceptional case and can never be referenced, therefore the refcnt never incremented/decremented. Its lifetime is always bound to tcf_proto, meaning if you delete tcf_proto the root_ht is deleted as well. The code made up for the fact that root_ht refcnt is 2 and did a double decrement to free it, which is not a fit for the refcount API. Even though refcount_t is implemented using atomics, we should observe a negligible control plane impact.
