From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3400278328285a8c2f121904496aff5e7b610a01 upstream. The generation ID is bumped from the commit path while holding the mutex, however, netlink dump operations rely on RCU. This patch also adds missing cb->base_eq initialization in nf_tables_dump_set(). Fixes: 38e029f14a97 ("netfilter: nf_tables: set NLM_F_DUMP_INTR if netlink dumping is stale") Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c | 20 +++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) --- a/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c @@ -889,7 +889,7 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_tables(struct rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); - cb->seq = nft_net->base_seq; + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && family != table->family) @@ -1705,7 +1705,7 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_chains(struct rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); - cb->seq = nft_net->base_seq; + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && family != table->family) @@ -3149,7 +3149,7 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_rules(struct s rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); - cb->seq = nft_net->base_seq; + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && family != table->family) @@ -4133,7 +4133,7 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_sets(struct sk rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); - cb->seq = nft_net->base_seq; + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (ctx->family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && @@ -5061,6 +5061,8 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_set(struct sk_ rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); + list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (dump_ctx->ctx.family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && dump_ctx->ctx.family != table->family) @@ -6887,7 +6889,7 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_obj(struct sk_ rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); - cb->seq = nft_net->base_seq; + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && family != table->family) @@ -7819,7 +7821,7 @@ static int nf_tables_dump_flowtable(stru rcu_read_lock(); nft_net = nft_pernet(net); - cb->seq = nft_net->base_seq; + cb->seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); list_for_each_entry_rcu(table, &nft_net->tables, list) { if (family != NFPROTO_UNSPEC && family != table->family) @@ -8752,6 +8754,7 @@ static int nf_tables_commit(struct net * struct nft_trans_elem *te; struct nft_chain *chain; struct nft_table *table; + unsigned int base_seq; LIST_HEAD(adl); int err; @@ -8801,9 +8804,12 @@ static int nf_tables_commit(struct net * * Bump generation counter, invalidate any dump in progress. * Cannot fail after this point. */ - while (++nft_net->base_seq == 0) + base_seq = READ_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq); + while (++base_seq == 0) ; + WRITE_ONCE(nft_net->base_seq, base_seq); + /* step 3.
