From: Vlad Buslov <vladbu@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit dbf47a2a094edf58983265e323ca4bdcdb58b5ee ] Action sample doesn't properly handle psample_group pointer in overwrite case. Following issues need to be fixed: - In tcf_sample_init() function RCU_INIT_POINTER() is used to set s->psample_group, even though we neither setting the pointer to NULL, nor preventing concurrent readers from accessing the pointer in some way. Use rcu_swap_protected() instead to safely reset the pointer. - Old value of s->psample_group is not released or deallocated in any way, which results resource leak. Use psample_group_put() on non-NULL value obtained with rcu_swap_protected(). - The function psample_group_put() that released reference to struct psample_group pointed by rcu-pointer s->psample_group doesn't respect rcu grace period when deallocating it. Extend struct psample_group with rcu head and use kfree_rcu when freeing it.
