This series restores acquire ordering for the mptcp token lookup and fixes
two pre-existing defects in that hash table which ordering alone cannot
cover.
Patch 1 converts mptcp_token_get_sock() and mptcp_token_iter_next() to
refcount_inc_not_zero_acquire(). These sockets live in a
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU slab, so the re-check of msk->token and sock_net()
after the increment only rejects a recycled socket if those loads are
ordered after the increment; without the acquire they can be satisfied
before it, against the previous owner's contents.
Patch 2 rejects token 0 in mptcp_token_get_sock(). Token 0 is never
assigned, but it is what mptcp_token_destroy() stores into a socket being
torn down, and what a freshly allocated msk holds until it is hashed.
For a lookup for token 0 both validations compare 0 with 0 and accept
such a socket; the token is copied from the wire by mptcp_parse_option(),
so a peer can ask for it. The join path then uses the result, including
msk->pm.anno_list, which is initialised only later.
Patch 3 makes mptcp_token_iter_next() re-read the token after the
increment and drop the socket unless it is non-zero and still hashes to
the slot being walked, so a socket recycled in the same network namespace
is not handed to mptcp_diag or the userspace path manager before it is
initialised.
v1 -> v2:
- Point the Fixes: tags at the commits that introduced each lockless
lookup instead of at the refcount consolidation (sashiko review).
v2 -> v3:
- Rewrite the rationale of the ordering patch: the acquire pairs with
the SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU reuse window published by
sock_init_data_uid(), not with mptcp_token_destroy() (sashiko review).
- Add the token 0 and iterator patches, reported by the same review.
v3 -> v4:
- Drop "net: core: take the reuseport migration reference with acquire
ordering". reuseport_migrate_sock() does not validate anything after
the increment, and the listener state that could be raced is re-checked
under queue->rskq_lock in inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add(), so the acquire
orders nothing there (sashiko review).
Hang Nan (3):
net: mptcp: take token lookup references with acquire ordering
net: mptcp: reject token 0 in mptcp_token_get_sock()
net: mptcp: verify the token slot in mptcp_token_iter_next()
