Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y] mptcp: fix subflow bitfield misuse
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 15:16:48 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110201634.3734215-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107052336-failed-6.12-7538fa33bb2f@kernel.org>
From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit 7538fa33bb2f66b8b809ff39d58308be48e197a0 ]
The subflow status bitfield is protected by the subflow socket lock,
with one notable exception: the `close_event_done` bit is actually under
the msk socket lock protection.
As reported by Clashiko [1], flipping the latter bit may corrupt other
entries in the same bitfield.
Move the `close_event_done` outside the bitfield, in a 32bit hole.

[ sashal: adjusted the unused-bit count from 7 to 8 instead of 8 to 9 because stale remains in the bitfield. ]
