Fix PACKET_RX_RING bug for versions TPACKET_V1 and TPACKET_V2 which casues the ring to get corrupted by allowing multiple kernel threads to claim ownership of the same ring entry. Track ownership in a shadow ring structure to prevent other kernel threads from reusing the same entry before it's fully filled in, passed to user space, and then eventually passed back to the kernel for use with a new packet.
Signed-off-by: Jon Rosen <jro...@cisco.com> --- There is a bug in net/packet/af_packet.c:tpacket_rcv in how it manages the PACKET_RX_RING for versions TPACKET_V1 and TPACKET_V2. This bug makes it possible for multiple kernel threads to claim ownership of the same ring entry, corrupting the ring and the corresponding packet(s). These diffs are the second proposed solution, previous proposal was described in https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg227468.html subject [RFC PATCH] packet: mark ring entry as in-use inside spin_lock to prevent RX ring overrun Those diffs would have changed the binary interface and have broken certain applications. Consensus was that such a change would be inappropriate. These new diffs use a shadow ring in kernel space for tracking intermediate state of an entry and prevent more than one kernel thread from simultaneously allocating a ring entry. This avoids any impact to the binary interface between kernel and userspace but comes at the additional cost of requiring a second spin_lock when passing ownership of a ring entry to userspace.
