From fda9ef5d679b07c9d9097aaf6ef7f069d794a8f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Mishin Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2006 15:28:39 -0700 Subject: [NET]: Fix sk->sk_filter field access Function sk_filter() is called from tcp_v{4,6}_rcv() functions with arg needlock = 0, while socket is not locked at that moment. In order to avoid this and similar issues in the future, use rcu for sk->sk_filter field read protection.
