Subject: [PATCH net v3 2/3] tun: fix inverted error check when re-attaching the filter
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 16:07:45 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930080746.135017-3-clementwei90@163.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930080746.135017-1-clementwei90@163.com>
From: Rongguang Wei <weirongguang@kylinos.cn>
tun_attach() returns early when sk_attach_filter_kern() succeeds instead of
when it fails, so a queue attached to a persistent TAP is never published
in tun->tfiles[] while TUNSETIFF still reported success.
Fix the check, so that a failed re-attach aborts the attach, and detach the
filter again if a later step of tun_attach() fails.
This has to come after the patch that keeps a kernel copy of the program:
with the check fixed but the program still read from the caller's address
space, a re-attach that used to succeed without installing any filter would
fail with -EFAULT or -EINVAL.
Fixes: 54f968d6efdb ("tuntap: move socket to tun_file")
