mainlining shenanigans
69421bf984
When we call connect() for a UDP socket in a reuseport group, we have
to update sk->sk_reuseport_cb->has_conns to 1. Otherwise, the kernel
could select a unconnected socket wrongly for packets sent to the
connected socket.
However, the current way to set has_conns is illegal and possible to
trigger that problem. reuseport_has_conns() changes has_conns under
rcu_read_lock(), which upgrades the RCU reader to the updater. Then,
it must do the update under the updater's lock, reuseport_lock, but
it doesn't for now.
For this reason, there is a race below where we fail to set has_conns
resulting in the wrong socket selection. To avoid the race, let's split
the reader and updater with proper locking.

Note the likely(reuse) in reuseport_has_conns_set() is always true,
but we put the test there for ease of review. [0]
For the record, usually, sk_reuseport_cb is changed under lock_sock().
The only exception is reuseport_grow() & TCP reqsk migration case.
1) shutdown() TCP listener, which is moved into the latter part of
reuse->socks[] to migrate reqsk.
2) New listen() overflows reuse->socks[] and call reuseport_grow().
3) reuse->max_socks overflows u16 with the new listener.
4) reuseport_grow() pops the old shutdown()ed listener from the array
and update its sk->sk_reuseport_cb as NULL without lock_sock().
shutdown()ed TCP sk->sk_reuseport_cb can be changed without lock_sock(),
but, reuseport_has_conns_set() is called only for UDP under lock_sock(),
so likely(reuse) never be false in reuseport_has_conns_set().

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.
