Now when peeling off an association to the sock in another netns, all transports in this assoc are not to be rehashed and keep use the old key in hashtable. As a transport uses sk->net as the hash key to insert into hashtable, it would miss removing these transports from hashtable due to the new netns when closing the sock and all transports are being freeed, then later an use-after-free issue could be caused when looking up an asoc and dereferencing those transports. This is a very old issue since very beginning, ChunYu found it with syzkaller fuzz testing with this series: socket$inet6_sctp() bind$inet6() sendto$inet6() unshare(0x40000000) getsockopt$inet_sctp6_SCTP_GET_ASSOC_ID_LIST() getsockopt$inet_sctp6_SCTP_SOCKOPT_PEELOFF() This patch is to block this call when peeling one assoc off from one netns to another one, so that the netns of all transport would not go out-sync with the key in hashtable. Note that this patch didn't fix it by rehashing transports, as it's difficult to handle the situation when the tuple is already in use in the new netns. Besides, no one would like to peel off one assoc to another netns, considering ipaddrs, ifaces, etc. are usually different.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
