If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jiri Kosina [ Upstream commit 59ea33a68a9083ac98515e4861c00e71efdc49a1 ] Back in 2006, commit 1a2449a87b ("[I/OAT]: TCP recv offload to I/OAT") added support for receive offloading to IOAT dma engine if available. The code in tcp_rcv_established() tries to perform early DMA copy if applicable. It however does so without checking whether the userspace task is actually expecting the data in the buffer. This is not a problem under normal circumstances, but there is a corner case where this doesn't work -- and that's when MSG_TRUNC flag to recvmsg() is used. If the IOAT dma engine is not used, the code properly checks whether there is a valid ucopy.task and the socket is owned by userspace, but misses the check in the dmaengine case. This problem can be observed in real trivially -- for example 'tbench' is a good reproducer, as it makes a heavy use of MSG_TRUNC. On systems utilizing IOAT, you will soon find tbench waiting indefinitely in sk_wait_data(), as they have been already early-copied in tcp_rcv_established() using dma engine. This patch introduces the same check we are performing in the simple iovec copy case to the IOAT case as well. It fixes the indefinite recvmsg(MSG_TRUNC) hangs.
