3.2.72-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 738ac1ebb96d02e0d23bc320302a6ea94c612dec upstream. Shared skbs must not be modified and this is crucial for broadcast and/or multicast paths where we use it as an optimisation to avoid unnecessary cloning. The function skb_recv_datagram breaks this rule by setting peeked without cloning the skb first. This causes funky races which leads to double-free. This patch fixes this by cloning the skb and replacing the skb in the list when setting skb->peeked.
