udp: introduce sk_for_each_rcu_safenext()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Corey Minyard found a race added in commit 271b72c
(udp: RCU handling for Unicast packets.)

 "If the socket is moved from one list to another list in-between the
 time the hash is calculated and the next field is accessed, and the
 socket has moved to the end of the new list, the traversal will not
 complete properly on the list it should have, since the socket will
 be on the end of the new list and there's not a way to tell it's on a
 new list and restart the list traversal.  I think that this can be
 solved by pre-fetching the "next" field (with proper barriers) before
 checking the hash."

This patch corrects this problem, introducing a new
sk_for_each_rcu_safenext() macro.
