Subject: [PATCH net v2] net: openvswitch: fix data race in ovs_vport_get_upcall_stats
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 15:29:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260121072932.2360971-1-mmyangfl@gmail.com> (raw)
In ovs_vport_get_upcall_stats(), some statistics protected by
u64_stats_sync, are read and accumulated in ignorance of possible
u64_stats_fetch_retry() events. These statistics are already accumulated
by u64_stats_inc(). Fix this by reading them into temporary variables
first.
Fixes: 1933ea365aa7 ("net: openvswitch: Add support to count upcall packets")
