From 8499a2454d9e8a55ce616ede9f9580f36fd5b0f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuniyuki Iwashima Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2022 09:50:16 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_nometrics_save. While reading sysctl_tcp_nometrics_save, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.
