Historically connect(AF_UNSPEC) has been abused by syzkaller and other fuzzers to trigger various bugs. A recent one triggers a divide-by-zero [1], and Paolo Abeni was able to diagnose the issue. tcp_recvmsg_locked() has tests about sk_state being not TCP_LISTEN and TCP REPAIR mode being not used. Then later if socket lock is released in sk_wait_data(), another thread can call connect(AF_UNSPEC), then make this socket a TCP listener. When recvmsg() is resumed, it can eventually call tcp_cleanup_rbuf() and attempt a divide by 0 in tcp_rcv_space_adjust() [1] This patch adds a new socket field, counting number of threads blocked in sk_wait_event() and inet_wait_for_connect(). If this counter is not zero, tcp_disconnect() returns an error. This patch adds code in blocking socket system calls, thus should not hurt performance of non blocking ones. Note that we probably could revert commit |

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.
