Subject: [PATCH mptcp-next v5 0/6] mptcp: avoid data-races around the sysctls
Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2026 14:06:37 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260828060643.14397-1-gang.yan@linux.dev> (raw)
From: Gang Yan <yangang@kylinos.cn>
Changelog:
v5:
- Patch 6 fixes the use-after-free reported by sashiko in [1]:
the module reference is now taken inside the same RCU read section as the
pointer fetch in mptcp_pm_data_reset(), so the ops cannot be freed between
rcu_read_unlock() and the bpf_try_module_get() that previously lived in
mptcp_pm_ops_init(). The reference hand-over is seamless: RCU protects
the fetch, the refcount protects the use. As a consequence,
mptcp_pm_ops_init() now expects an already-pinned ops and no longer takes
a reference itself; the fallback to the built-in mptcp_pm_kernel needs no
reference.
