There is no guarantee that state->sk refers to a full socket. If refcount transitions to 0, sock_put calls sk_free which then ends up with garbage fields. I'd like to thank Oleksandr Natalenko and Jiri Benc for considerable debug work and pointing out state->sk oddities. Fixes: ca6fb0651883 ("tcp: attach SYNACK messages to request sockets instead of listener") Tested-by: Oleksandr Natalenko <oleksandr@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
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.
