Subject: net: remove hlist_nulls_add_tail_rcu()

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>


[ Upstream commit d7efc6c11b277d9d80b99b1334a78bfe7d7edf10 ]

Alexander Potapenko reported use of uninitialized memory [1]

This happens when inserting a request socket into TCP ehash,
in __sk_nulls_add_node_rcu(), since sk_reuseport is not initialized.

Bug was added by commit d894ba18d4e4 ("soreuseport: fix ordering for
mixed v4/v6 sockets")

Note that d296ba60d8e2 ("soreuseport: Resolve merge conflict for v4/v6
ordering fix") missed the opportunity to get rid of
hlist_nulls_add_tail_rcu() :

Both UDP sockets and TCP/DCCP listeners no longer use
__sk_nulls_add_node_rcu() for their hash insertion.

Since all other sockets have unique 4-tuple, the reuseport status
has no special meaning, so we can always use hlist_nulls_add_head_rcu()
for them and save few cycles/instructions.

- * However, it is perfectly legal to run concurrently with
- * the _rcu list-traversal primitives, such as
- * hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu(), used to prevent memory-consistency
- * problems on Alpha CPUs.  Regardless of the type of CPU, the
