Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
New issues:
- [Medium] Missing READ_ONCE() when accessing `psock->progs.stream_verdict` and `psock->progs.skb_verdict` concurrently.
Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Missing equivalent FIONREAD fix for UDP sockets in udp_bpf_ioctl().

--- Patch [1]: [PATCH bpf] bpf, sockmap: Account for receive queue in FIONREAD without a verdict program ---

bpf, sockmap: Account for receive queue in FIONREAD without a verdict program
This commit fixes tcp_bpf_ioctl() to account for data in the sk_receive_queue
(via tcp_inq()) when answering SIOCINQ for a psock without a verdict program.
Previously, it only counted bytes diverted to ingress_msg.

[Severity: Medium]
Are READ_ONCE() wrappers needed when accessing these verdict program pointers?
These pointers can be updated concurrently by other threads via xchg() (for
example, when sk_psock_stop_verdict() is called during map detachment under
sk_callback_lock).
Since tcp_bpf_ioctl() reads these pointers holding only lock_sock_fast(),
reading them without READ_ONCE() might constitute a data race and lead to
compiler optimization issues.
[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does udp_bpf_ioctl() in
net/ipv4/udp_bpf.c need an equivalent fix for UDP sockets?
Looking at udp_bpf_ioctl():
net/ipv4/udp_bpf.c:udp_bpf_ioctl() {
...
if (cmd == SIOCINQ) {
slow = lock_sock_fast(sk);
*karg = sk_msg_first_len(sk);
unlock_sock_fast(sk, slow);
return 0;
}
...
}
It unconditionally answers SIOCINQ from sk_msg_first_len() and ignores
the standard socket receive queue where data resides when no verdict
program is attached.
FIONREAD returning 0 for a pending UDP datagram causes applications
to allocate insufficient buffer space. Since UDP datagrams are truncated
if the provided buffer is too small, could this lead to silent data loss?
