From d1fe19444d82e399e38c1594c71b850eca8e9de0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2015 12:05:37 +0200 Subject: inet: frag: don't re-use chainlist for evictor commit 65ba1f1ec0eff ("inet: frags: fix a race between inet_evict_bucket and inet_frag_kill") describes the bug, but the fix doesn't work reliably. Problem is that ->flags member can be set on other cpu without chainlock being held by that task, i.e. the RMW-Cycle can clear INET_FRAG_EVICTED bit after we put the element on the evictor private list. We can crash when walking the 'private' evictor list since an element can be deleted from list underneath the evictor. Join work with Nikolay Alexandrov.
