Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/4] net/rds: acquire RDS_IN_XMIT in rds_tcp_reset_callbacks()
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 00:20:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806072045.1092968-5-achender@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260806072045.1092968-1-achender@kernel.org>
rds_tcp_reset_callbacks() quiesces the transmit path by setting the
path state to RDS_CONN_RESETTING and then waiting for RDS_IN_XMIT to
be sampled clear before swapping the underlying socket and calling
rds_send_path_reset().
As in rds_conn_shutdown(), sampling the bit clear is not the same as
owning it: rds_send_xmit() can re-acquire RDS_IN_XMIT right after the
wait_event() returns. Its state recheck after taking the lock is a
store-buffering pattern (teardown writes the state and reads the bit,
the sender writes the bit and reads the state) and acquire_in_xmit()
is only an acquire operation, so on weakly ordered architectures both
sides can miss each other's write and the transmit path then runs
concurrently with rds_send_path_reset() rewriting cp_xmit_* state.
Take the lock instead, hold it across the socket swap and
rds_send_path_reset(), and release it with a wake-up at the end. The
lock-ordering constraint documented above the wait still holds: the
lock is acquired before lock_sock(), so a sender inside tcp_sendmsg()
can never be waited on while we hold the socket lock. The !osock
early path is unchanged: it does not quiesce today and the connection
has never been RDS_CONN_UP at that point, so there is no sender to
serialize against.
This extends the previous change ("net/rds: acquire
the fastpath locks in rds_conn_shutdown()") to the only other
rds_send_path_reset() call site, mirroring Oracle UEK's "rds: Make sure
transmit path and connection tear-down does not run concurrently".
Fixes: 335b48d980f6 ("RDS: TCP: Add/use rds_tcp_reset_callbacks to reset tcp socket safely")
