From: Julian Anastasov <ja@xxxxxx>
3.4.111-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
commit 2c17d27c36dcce2b6bf689f41a46b9e909877c21 upstream.
Incoming packet should be either in backlog queue or
in RCU read-side section. Otherwise, the final sequence of
flush_backlog() and synchronize_net() may miss packets
that can run without device reference:
CPU 1 CPU 2
skb->dev: no reference
process_backlog:__skb_dequeue
process_backlog:local_irq_enable
on_each_cpu for
flush_backlog => IPI(hardirq): flush_backlog
- packet not found in backlog
CPU delayed ...
synchronize_net
- no ongoing RCU
read-side sections
netdev_run_todo,
rcu_barrier: no
ongoing callbacks
__netif_receive_skb_core:rcu_read_lock
- too late
free dev
process packet for freed dev

[lizf: Backported to 3.4:
- adjust context
- no need to change "goto unlock" to "goto out"]
