Subject: [PATCH net-next 13/15] batman-adv: bla: increase hash generation when purging entries
Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2026 10:15:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114091556.3336038-14-sw@simonwunderlich.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261114091556.3336038-1-sw@simonwunderlich.de>
From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
If batadv_bla_claim_dump() or batadv_bla_backbone_dump() is preempted
during a netlink dump and resumes in the middle of a hash bucket while
batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() or batadv_bla_purge_backbone_gw()
concurrently removes an entry, the dump offset will be shifted.
Without incrementing the hash generation counter, netlink won't set
NLM_F_DUMP_INTR and the userspace will not be informed about the
inconsistent dump.
Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/bug/linux-83da443f-ce69-4393-a29f-e02b70d1ec96
