[PATCH 6.1 270/798] netfilter: nf_tables: Keep deleted flowtable hooks until after RCU

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

 



6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Phil Sutter <phil@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 642c89c475419b4d0c0d90e29d9c1a0e4351f379 ]

Documentation of list_del_rcu() warns callers to not immediately free
the deleted list item. While it seems not necessary to use the
RCU-variant of list_del() here in the first place, doing so seems to
require calling kfree_rcu() on the deleted item as well.

Fixes: 3f0465a9ef02 ("netfilter: nf_tables: dynamically allocate hooks per net_device in flowtables")
