From: Dag Moxnes <dag.moxnes@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d8d9ec7dc5abbb3f11d866e983c4984f5c2de9d6 ] Use the neighbour lock when copying the MAC address from the neighbour data struct in dst_fetch_ha. When not using the lock, it is possible for the function to race with neigh_update(), causing it to copy an torn MAC address: rdma_resolve_addr() rdma_resolve_ip() addr_resolve() addr_resolve_neigh() fetch_ha() dst_fetch_ha() memcpy(dev_addr->dst_dev_addr, n->ha, MAX_ADDR_LEN) and net_ioctl() arp_ioctl() arp_rec_delete() arp_invalidate() neigh_update() __neigh_update() memcpy(&neigh->ha, lladdr, dev->addr_len) It is possible to provoke this error by calling rdma_resolve_addr() in a tight loop, while deleting the corresponding ARP entry in another tight loop. Fixes: 51d45974515c ("infiniband: addr: Consolidate code to fetch neighbour hardware address from dst.")
