[PATCH mptcp-net 3/3] mptcp: Acquire the subflow socket lock before modifying MP_PRIO flags
Posted by Mat Martineau 3 years, 7 months ago 
When setting up a subflow's flags for sending MP_PRIO MPTCP options, the
subflow socket lock was not held while reading and modifying several
struct members that are also read and modified in mptcp_write_options().

Acquire the subflow socket lock earlier and send the MP_PRIO ACK with
that lock already acquired.

Fixes: 067065422fcd ("mptcp: add the outgoing MP_PRIO support")

After this chunk, we can remove mptcp_subflow_send_ack() from
protocol.h and make it static. I think it's easier squashing this patch
into the previous one.

Thanks!

There's still a call to mptcp_subflow_send_ack() in pm_netlink.c, so I'll 
leave both in protocol.h for now. Will squash patches 2 & 3 though.

Hi Mat,

Thank you for your modifications, that's great!

Our CI did some validations and here is its report:

If there are some issues, you can reproduce them using the same environment as
the one used by the CI thanks to a docker image, e.g.:

    $ cd [kernel source code]
    $ docker run -v "${PWD}:${PWD}:rw" -w "${PWD}" --privileged --rm -it \
        --pull always mptcp/mptcp-upstream-virtme-docker:latest \
        auto-debug

For more details:

    https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp-upstream-virtme-docker


Please note that despite all the efforts that have been already done to have a
stable tests suite when executed on a public CI like here, it is possible some
reported issues are not due to your modifications. Still, do not hesitate to
help us improve that ;-)
