Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y] mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: fix potential data-race
Date: Mon, 18 May 2026 10:33:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260518143355.1341039-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026051215-bacon-cartoon-33fb@gregkh>

From: "Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)" <matttbe@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 5cd6e0ad79d2615264f63929f8b457ad97ae550d ]

This mptcp_pm_add_timer() helper is executed as a timer callback in
softirq context. To avoid any data races, the socket lock needs to be
held with bh_lock_sock().

If the socket is in use, retry again soon after, similar to what is done
with the keepalive timer.

Fixes: 00cfd77b9063 ("mptcp: retransmit ADD_ADDR when timeout")
