From 3c9ba81d72047f2e81bb535d42856517b613aba7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuniyuki Iwashima Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2022 10:47:00 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: Fix a data-race around sysctl_somaxconn. While reading sysctl_somaxconn, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.
