Merge branch 'net-fix-skb-unclone-issues'
Antoine Tenart says: ==================== net: fix issues when uncloning an skb dst+metadata This fixes two issues when uncloning an skb dst+metadata in tun_dst_unclone; this was initially reported by Vlad Buslov[1]. Because of the memory leak fixed by patch 2, the issue in patch 1 never happened in practice. tun_dst_unclone is called from two different places, one in geneve/vxlan to handle PMTU and one in net/openvswitch/actions.c where it is used to retrieve tunnel information. While both Vlad and I tested the former, we could not for the latter. I did spend quite some time trying to, but that code path is not easy to trigger. Code inspection shows this should be fine, the tunnel information (dst+metadata) is uncloned and the skb it is referenced from is only consumed after all accesses to the tunnel information are done: do_execute_actions output_userspace dev_fill_metadata_dst <- dst+metadata is uncloned ovs_dp_upcall queue_userspace_packet ovs_nla_put_tunnel_info <- metadata (tunnel info) is accessed consume_skb <- dst+metadata is freed Thanks!
