Subject: [PATCH v1 net] af_unix: Set gc_in_progress to true in unix_gc().
Date: Fri,  1 May 2026 07:39:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260501073945.1884564-1-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)

Igor Ushakov reported that unix_gc() could run with gc_in_progress
being false if the work is scheduled while running:

  ...                                              `- queue_work()
  |                                                       |
  `- gc_in_progress = false                               |
                                                          |
  unix_gc() <---------------------------------------------'
  |
  ... /* gc_in_progress == false */
  |
  `- gc_in_progress = false

unix_peek_fpl() relies on gc_in_progress not to confuse GC
by MSG_PEEK.

Let's set gc_in_progress to true in unix_gc().

Fixes: 8b90a9f819dc ("af_unix: Run GC on only one CPU.")
