Eric Dumazet says: ==================== tcp: address KCSAN reports in tcp_poll() (part I) This all started with a KCSAN report (included in "tcp: annotate tp->rcv_nxt lockless reads" changelog) tcp_poll() runs in a lockless way. This means that about all accesses of tcp socket fields done in tcp_poll() context need annotations otherwise KCSAN will complain about data-races. While doing this detective work, I found a more serious bug, addressed by the first patch ("tcp: add rcu protection around tp->fastopen_rsk"). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
