Subject: [PATCH net] vxlan: annotate lockless accesses to rdst->remote_ifindex
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 08:22:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110072208.3273638-1-edumazet@kernel.org> (raw)

vxlan_fdb_replace() can update rd->remote_ifindex in place while
the destination entry is visible to concurrent lockless RCU readers:

- vxlan_fdb_info() reads rdst->remote_ifindex during RCU-protected
  FDB dumps and gets.
- vxlan_fdb_switchdev_notifier_info() reads rd->remote_ifindex from
  vxlan_fdb_find_uc().
- vxlan_snoop() reads rdst->remote_ifindex on the RX path.
- vxlan_xmit_one() reads rdst->remote_ifindex on the TX path.

Annotate these accesses with READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE().

Fixes: 906dc186e020 ("vxlan fdb replace an existing entry")
Fixes: 87613de95041 ("vxlan: fix snooping for link-local IPv6 addresses")
Fixes: 49f810f00fa3 ("vxlan: allow multiple VXLANs with same VNI for IPv6 link-local addresses")
