tcp: md5: fix rcu lockdep splat
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
While timer handler effectively runs a rcu read locked section,
there is no explicit rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() annotations
and lockdep can be confused here :

net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c-906-        /* caller either holds rcu_read_lock() or socket lock */
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:907:        md5sig = rcu_dereference_check(tp->md5sig_info,
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c-908-                                       sock_owned_by_user(sk) ||
net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c-909-                                       lockdep_is_held(&sk->sk_lock.slock));

Let's explicitely acquire rcu_read_lock() in tcp_make_synack()

Before commit fa76ce7 ("inet: get rid of central tcp/dccp listener
timer"), we were holding listener lock so lockdep was happy.
