3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c7c49b8fde26b74277188bdc6c9dca38db6fa35b ] Greg reported crashes hitting the following check in __sk_backlog_rcv() BUG_ON(!sock_flag(sk, SOCK_MEMALLOC)); The pfmemalloc bit is currently checked in sk_filter(). This works correctly for TCP, because sk_filter() is ran in tcp_v[46]_rcv() before hitting the prequeue or backlog checks. For UDP or other protocols, this does not work, because the sk_filter() is ran from sock_queue_rcv_skb(), which might be called _after_ backlog queuing if socket is owned by user by the time packet is processed by softirq handler.
