Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/9] vxlan: vnifilter: use list_for_each_entry_rcu() in vxlan_vnifilter_dump_dev()
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2026 12:08:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260903120840.1024153-4-edumazet@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260903120840.1024153-1-edumazet@google.com>
vxlan_vnifilter_dump_dev() runs under rcu_read_lock() without RTNL when
dumping VNI filter entries via RTM_GETTUNNEL.
1) Currently it traverses vg->vni_list using list_for_each_entry_safe(),
which performs raw pointer accesses without RCU dereference barriers.
Since concurrent RTNL writers modify vg->vni_list using list_add_rcu()
and list_del_rcu(), use list_for_each_entry_rcu() instead.
2) If vxlan_vnifilter_dump_dev() returns early because VXLAN_F_VNIFILTER
is not set or vg has no VNIs, cb->args[1] was not cleared. If a
paginated dump was in progress, this leaked a non-zero cb->args[1]
to the next device in vxlan_vnifilter_dump(), silently skipping its
first N VNIs. Clear cb->args[1] on early returns.
Fixes: f9c4bb0b245c ("vxlan: vni filtering support on collect metadata device")
