Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 2/6] net: dst: annotate data-races around dst->input
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 07:36:58 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723113702.3035088-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723113702.3035088-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
[ Upstream commit f1c5fd34891a1c242885f48c2e4dc52df180f311 ]
dst_dev_put() can overwrite dst->input while other
cpus might read this field (for instance from dst_input())
Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations to suppress
potential issues.
We will likely need full RCU protection later.
Fixes: 4a6ce2b6f2ec ("net: introduce a new function dst_dev_put()")
