[PATCH 5.1 09/70] packet: unconditionally free po->rollover

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

 



From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit afa0925c6fcc6a8f610e996ca09bc3215048033c ]

Rollover used to use a complex RCU mechanism for assignment, which had
a race condition. The below patch fixed the bug and greatly simplified
the logic.

The feature depends on fanout, but the state is private to the socket.
Fanout_release returns f only when the last member leaves and the
fanout struct is to be freed.

Destroy rollover unconditionally, regardless of fanout state.
