mainlining shenanigans
844cf763fb
The macro tipc_wait_for_cond() is embedding the macro sk_wait_event()
to fulfil its task. The latter, in turn, is evaluating the stated
condition outside the socket lock context. This is problematic if
the condition is accessing non-trivial data structures which may be
altered by incoming interrupts, as is the case with the cong_links()
linked list, used by socket to keep track of the current set of
congested links. We sometimes see crashes when this list is accessed
by a condition function at the same time as a SOCK_WAKEUP interrupt
is removing an element from the list.
We fix this by expanding selected parts of sk_wait_event() into the
outer macro, while ensuring that all evaluations of a given condition
are performed under socket lock protection.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
