[ Upstream commit d82ba05263c69fa2437fe93e4e561cc40f4c03af ]
Igor Ushakov reported that unix_gc() could run with gc_in_progress
being false if the work is scheduled while running:
Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3
-------- -------- --------
unix_schedule_gc() unix_schedule_gc()
`- if (!gc_in_progress) `- if (!gc_in_progress)
|- gc_in_progress = true |
`- queue_work() |
unix_gc() <----------------/ |
| |- gc_in_progress = true
... `- 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.")

[ Add setting gc_in_progress in __unix_gc(). Keep the existing
set in unix_gc() for wait_for_unix_gc() over-limit throttling. ]
