Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
740ea3c4a0
Eric Dumazet reported a use-after-free related to the per-netns ehash
series. [0]
When we create a TCP socket from userspace, the socket always holds a
refcnt of the netns. This guarantees that a reqsk timer is always fired
before netns dismantle. Each reqsk has a refcnt of its listener, so the
listener is not freed before the reqsk, and the net is not freed before
the listener as well.
OTOH, when in-kernel users create a TCP socket, it might not hold a refcnt
of its netns. Thus, a reqsk timer can be fired after the netns dismantle
and access freed per-netns ehash.
To avoid the use-after-free, we need to clean up TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV sockets
in inet_twsk_purge() if the netns uses a per-netns ehash.

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.
