[PATCH net 0/7] mptcp: locking cleanup & misc. fixes

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

 



Patches 1-4 are fixes for issues found by Paolo while working on adding
TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT support. The latter will need to track more states
under the msk data lock. Since the locking msk locking schema is already
quite complex, do a long awaited clean-up step by moving several
confusing lockless initialization under the relevant locks. Note that it
is unlikely a real race could happen even prior to such patches as the
MPTCP-level state machine implicitly ensures proper serialization of the
write accesses, even lacking explicit lock. But still, simplification is
welcome and this will help for the maintenance. This can be backported
up to v5.6.

Patch 5 is a fix for the userspace PM, not to add new local address
entries if the address is already in the list. This behaviour can be
seen since v5.19.

Patch 6 fixes an issue when Fastopen is used. The issue can happen since
v6.2. A previous fix has already been applied, but not taking care of
all cases according to syzbot.

Patch 7 updates Geliang's email address in the MAINTAINERS file.
