[PATCH 4.9 51/75] net/mlx5e: Prevent possible races in VXLAN control flow

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gal Pressman <galp@xxxxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 0c1cc8b2215f5122ca614b5adca60346018758c3 ]

When calling add/remove VXLAN port, a lock must be held in order to
prevent race scenarios when more than one add/remove happens at the
same time.
Fix by holding our state_lock (mutex) as done by all other parts of the
driver.
Note that the spinlock protecting the radix-tree is still needed in
order to synchronize radix-tree access from softirq context.

Fixes: b3f63c3d5e2c ("net/mlx5e: Add netdev support for VXLAN tunneling")
