Subject: [PATCH net-next v9 10/13] net/rds: take cp_lock to purge cp_send_queue in the quiesce
Date: Wed,  7 Oct 2026 20:13:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008031333.1142174-11-achender@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008031333.1142174-1-achender@kernel.org>

rds_conn_path_quiesce() empties cp_send_queue by walking it with no
lock held, while every path that adds to that queue -
rds_send_queue_rm(), rds_send_probe(), the retransmit requeue in
rds_send_path_reset() - does so under cp_lock.  The unlocked walk was
justified by the destroy running with nothing else alive: at every
destroy trigger there is - netns teardown and module unload - no
socket can still be sending on the connection, since a bound socket
pins its transport module and a namespace closes its sockets before
its RDS connections are torn down.

That argument still holds, but it is an argument about the callers,
not a property of the code.  Splice the queue away under cp_lock and
drop the message references outside it, so that the one walker of the
list follows the same lock discipline as its adders.  This does not
by itself make a sender that is still running safe - nothing here
tells such a sender that the queue is closed - and it does not need
to, since no such sender exists at any destroy trigger.

While at it, make the purge coherent with rds_send_drop_to(), the
other path that removes messages from a connection queue.  drop_to
decides whether it owns the queue's reference by test_and_clear on
RDS_MSG_ON_CONN, and unlinks m_conn_item from whatever list the
message is on.  The purge used to BUG_ON() a message that a socket
still had queued, and that assertion is also what kept a drop_to
racing it from putting the queue's reference a second time or
unlinking from the purge list; the lock above is what closes the
stale-next hazard of the old walk, not the assertion.  Clear the bit
under cp_lock as part of the splice, so that drop_to leaves a purged
message alone, and turn the BUG_ON() into a WARN_ON_ONCE(): a socket
with messages queued at destroy is still a condition worth reporting -
no sender or closer can be running at any destroy trigger today - but
not one worth a panic, since the socket side keeps its own reference
and retires the message on close.
