Subject: [PATCH v3 net] net: bridge: annotate data-races around fdb->{updated,used}
Date: Thu,  8 Jan 2026 09:38:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108093806.834459-1-edumazet@google.com> (raw)

fdb->updated and fdb->used are read and written locklessly.

Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations.

Fixes: 31cbc39b6344 ("net: bridge: add option to allow activity notifications for any fdb entries")
Reported-by: syzbot+bfab43087ad57222ce96@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/695e3d74.050a0220.1c677c.035f.GAE@google.com/

v3: annotate br_handle_frame_finish() as well (Nikolay)
v2: annotate all problematic fdb->updated and fdb->used reads/writes.
