Subject: [PATCH net 07/10] netfilter: nft_fib_ipv6: walk fib6_siblings under RCU
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 12:42:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260522104257.2008-8-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260522104257.2008-1-fw@strlen.de>
From: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>
nft_fib6_info_nh_uses_dev() runs from nft_fib6_eval() in softirq under
rcu_read_lock(). fib6_siblings is modified by writers that hold
tb6_lock but do not wait for RCU readers, so the sibling walk should
use list_for_each_entry_rcu(): it adds READ_ONCE() on the ->next
pointer and lets CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST validate the locking.
No functional change for non-debug builds.
Fixes: 1c32b24c234b ("netfilter: nft_fib_ipv6: switch to fib6_lookup")
