[PATCH 5.7 019/244] tcp: md5: refine tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key() barriers

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

 



From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e6ced831ef11a2a06e8d00aad9d4fc05b610bf38 ]

My prior fix went a bit too far, according to Herbert and Mathieu.

Since we accept that concurrent TCP MD5 lookups might see inconsistent
keys, we can use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() instead of smp_rmb()/smp_wmb()

Clearing all key->key[] is needed to avoid possible KMSAN reports,
if key->keylen is increased. Since tcp_md5_do_add() is not fast path,
using __GFP_ZERO to clear all struct tcp_md5sig_key is simpler.

data_race() was added in linux-5.8 and will prevent KCSAN reports,
this can safely be removed in stable backports, if data_race() is
not yet backported.

v2: use data_race() both in tcp_md5_hash_key() and tcp_md5_do_add()

Fixes: 6a2febec338d ("tcp: md5: add missing memory barriers in tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key()")
