Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:
1) Use DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE() instead of WARN_ON() from the tproxy
datapath, a recent bug found a way to reach WARN_ON from datapath
due to insufficient validation of xt_TPROTO checkentry.
From Fernando F. Mancera.
2) Similar to previous patch to replace WARN_ON_ONCE by
DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE() for connlimit. Not known issue, but
since this patch has been around for a while, let's merge it.
Also from Fernando.
3) Move nf_tables harware offload commit path after chain blob
and audit to reduce chances of leaving the hardware in
inconsistent state.
4) Add missing vzeroupper to nf_tables pipapo AVX2 to address
performace degradation to later user of SSE code,
from Eric Biggers.
5) Remove pr_debug() in x_tables extensions, a recent bogus found a
way to print a unsanitized string in xt_IDLETIMER, many of these
pr_debug() calls are there for historical reasons.
6) Use pr_info_ratelimited() in x_tables .checkentry.
7) Fix an imbalance in module refcount due to incorrect override
expression logic with sets. Remove unnecessary clone in control
plane, use the existing expressions provided by set or dynset
expression. Release override expressions only.
8) Tigthen nf_tables device name removal, it is possible to remove
prefix strings with exact device name. From Fernando F. Mancera.
9) Set on the set dead bit earlier, otherwise it is possible to
call .commit on deleted sets. This also addresses the
re-introduction of a bug.

A virtio_net_hdr (tun/tap, or AF_PACKET with PACKET_VNET_HDR) can mark
an IPv4 or IPv6 fragment as GSO; nothing relates gso_type to frag_off.
inet_frag_reasm_prepare()/inet_frag_reasm_finish() keep the first
fragment's skb as the head of the reassembled datagram, including its
shinfo->gso_size/gso_type/gso_segs, and chain the remaining fragments
on frag_list with whatever linear/paged layout they arrived with.
After ip_defrag() (ip_local_deliver(), nf_defrag_ipv4, ...) the
reassembled skb therefore still claims to be GSO (SKB_GSO_DODGY), and
the next software segmentation point - udp_rcv_segment() on local
delivery, validate_xmit_skb(), or the ip_finish_output_gso() slow
path - hands it to skb_segment(). skb_segment()'s frag_list walk
assumes GRO-shaped input and hits one of its BUG_ON()s. Two writes to
a tap by an unprivileged user in its own userns are enough:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
This runs with BH disabled, so it is a panic rather than an oops. The
same is reachable with CAP_NET_RAW in a netns where a defrag point
precedes a GSO point, and from a guest whose VMM forwards
virtio_net_hdr to a tap. The SKB_GSO_DODGY frag_list checks added by
commit 3dcbdb134f ("net: gso: Fix skb_segment splat when splitting
gso_size mangled skb having linear-headed frag_list") and by
commit 9e4b7a99a0 ("net: gso: fix panic on frag_list with mixed head
alloc types") do not cover it: page-backed heads skip them, and kmalloc
heads skip them when gso_size == skb_headlen(head), which the sender
controls.
An skb entering a frag queue is an IP fragment by definition and
cannot legitimately carry GSO state: GRO does not merge fragments and
the stack segments before it fragments, so only untrusted sources are
affected. This has been reachable since
commit f43798c276 ("tun: Allow GSO using virtio_net_hdr"), the first
path that let userspace attach GSO metadata to an IP fragment. Reset
the GSO fields of every fragment as it is queued, in
inet_frag_queue_insert(), which IPv4, IPv6, nf_conntrack_reasm and
6lowpan reassembly share; then neither the head nor the frag_list
members of the reassembled skb carry them (the members matter too:
the ip_do_fragment()/ip6_fragment() fast paths send them out as they
are). The head may remain CHECKSUM_PARTIAL; that is already accepted
on receive and resolved by skb_checksum_help() in
ip_do_fragment()/ip6_fragment() on forward.
Tested on top of net.git (dc4b95b8fe), x86_64: the tap reproducer
above, two further IPv4 frag_list geometries that reach
BUG_ON(i >= nfrags) and BUG_ON(!list_skb->head_frag), and an IPv6
fragment-header variant (udp6_ufo_fragment()) each panic the unpatched
kernel; with this patch all four datagrams are delivered intact and
nothing is logged.

htb_classify() follows each filter-selected inner class by switching
to cl->filter_list, but never bounds the number of hops. A filter on
an inner class can point back to itself or to another inner class that
points back, creating an infinite loop in the packet classification
path with the qdisc lock held and BH disabled — a soft lockup / panic
from a single packet.
Bound the traversal with a hop counter and drop the packet with a
rate-limited warning once the bound is exceeded. The counter is
incremented at the point the inner filter chain is picked up, after the
TC_ACT_* switch has consumed the classifier verdict, so a terminal
TC_ACT_QUEUED/STOLEN/TRAP on the last permitted chain still sets *qerr
to __NET_XMIT_STOLEN and the packet is not charged as a drop by this
qdisc or its parent.
The bound is TC_HTB_MAXDEPTH, taken from HTB's own parameters rather than
from the qdisc hierarchy depth limit. Class levels run from 0 to
TC_HTB_MAXDEPTH - 1, so a traversal that strictly descends in level can
take at most TC_HTB_MAXDEPTH hops. That descent is what a sane
configuration does, but it is assumed here rather than enforced:
htb_find() resolves a classid against every class in the qdisc, so a
filter may equally select a sibling or an ancestor. The normal
root -> inner -> leaf path takes a single hop, so the bound does not
affect legitimate classification.
htb_classify() can now return NULL irrespective of CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT,
whereas previously every NULL return sat inside that ifdef. The NULL
handler in htb_enqueue() therefore cannot stay conditional either, so
drop the ifdef around it. This matches hfsc_enqueue(), which has always
handled a NULL class unconditionally. Without it, a kernel built
without actions would dereference a NULL class instead of dropping.
Conditions to recreate the bug:
- CONFIG_NET_SCHED, CONFIG_NET_SCH_HTB, CONFIG_NET_CLS_U32,
CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR.
- Create an HTB qdisc on a device (e.g. lo), add an inner class
1:1 with a leaf child 1:10, install a root u32 filter selecting
1:1, and an inner-class u32 filter on 1:1 also selecting 1:1.
- Send one packet (ping). On the unfixed kernel the classify loop
spins with the qdisc lock held; with softlockup_panic=1 it panics.
- Reachable from unprivileged user via unshare -Urn (CAP_NET_ADMIN).

Drive a connection into urgent mode and force a multi-segment retransmit,
checking that each retransmitted segment keeps its own urg_ptr.
The test asserts the fixed behaviour: the hole is retransmitted as two
independent skbs, each with its own urg_ptr (5001 and 4001) and no PSH.
An unpatched kernel instead sends one super-skb whose GSO split copies
urg_ptr onto the second segment and also sets PSH there, so on an unpatched
kernel the mismatch shows up on the PSH bit (actual P.U ... urg 5001) before
the urg_ptr:
tcp_urg_ptr_retransmit.pkt:63: live packet field tcp_psh:
expected: 0 (0x0) vs actual: 1 (0x1)
script packet: .U 1001:2001(1000) ack 1
actual packet: P.U 1001:2001(1000) ack 1 win 1050
After the fix the retransmit carries a per-segment urg_ptr and the test
passes.

On the normal xmit path, while in urgent mode we refuse to build a
multi-segment TSO packet, so every segment gets its own urg_ptr:
/* tcp_write_xmit() */
limit = mss_now;
if (tso_segs > 1 && !tcp_urg_mode(tp))
limit = tcp_mss_split_point(...);
The retransmit path has no such guard. __tcp_retransmit_skb() builds a
segs > 1 skb and hands it to the GSO layer, which only advances th->seq
per segment and copies urg_ptr verbatim:
/* __tcp_retransmit_skb() */
len = cur_mss * segs; /* segs > 1, no urg_mode check */
...
/* tcp_gso_segment(): bumps seq only, urg_ptr is copied */
urg_ptr is an offset from the segment's own seq, so a copied value points
at a different place on each segment. The receiver rebuilds the absolute
urgent seq as seg.seq + urg_ptr, so it walks a moving urgent point instead
of the one OOB byte:
seg1 seq 1 urg_ptr 5001 -> urgent @ 5001 (ok)
seg2 seq 1001 urg_ptr 5001 -> urgent @ 6001 (wrong, +MSS)
seg3 seq 2001 urg_ptr 5001 -> urgent @ 7001 (wrong, +2*MSS)
The real OOB byte is never pointed at, so the receiver stops splicing it
out and delivers it as normal in-band data, corrupting the stream.
Guard the retransmit length like the xmit path: keep segs = 1 while in
urgent mode.

Jaeyoung Chung and Eulgyu Kim reported a slab-use-after-free read
in slip_receive_buf() when racing against tty hangup.
tty_ldisc_hangup() calls ld->ops->hangup() while holding only
a read lock on tty->ldisc_sem (via tty_ldisc_ref()).
Because slip_hangup() simply called slip_close(), it ran concurrently
with reader functions such as slip_receive_buf().
slip_close() unregisters and frees the net device and its private
struct slip, causing concurrent reader threads in slip_receive_buf()
to dereference freed memory.
Line discipline close() is already guaranteed to be called under
the write lock of tty->ldisc_sem during hangup processing
(in tty_ldisc_reinit() or tty_ldisc_kill()).
Remove slip_hangup() so teardown is serialized cleanly by slip_close().

br_multicast_toggle_one_vlan() clears BR_VLFLAG_MCAST_ENABLED under
br->multicast_lock before stopping a VLAN's multicast context. That is
the teardown handshake: lockless readers gate on the flag through
br_multicast_ctx_should_use() -> br_multicast_ctx_vlan_disabled(), so
once it is cleared under the lock no reader can arm the context again.
For a master VLAN the handshake never runs. __vlan_del() clears
BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_BRENTRY before calling br_vlan_put_master(), so
br_multicast_toggle_one_vlan(masterv, false) returns early on
!br_vlan_is_brentry(vlan): the flag stays set and br->multicast_lock is
never taken. br_vlan_put_master() then drains the context in
br_multicast_ctx_deinit() and frees the VLAN through call_rcu(), while a
reader still inside rcu_read_lock() sees the context as enabled and
re-arms it. The port and port-VLAN branch of the function has no
br_vlan_is_brentry() test and flips the flag under br->multicast_lock,
so it is not affected.
The reader is the bridge transmit path. For a master VLAN
br_multicast_rcv() selects brmctx = &vlan->br_mcast_ctx with
pmctx = NULL, so IGMP sent to the bridge device re-arms the context's
timers after br_multicast_ctx_deinit() has already stopped them.

qdisc_get_stab() accepts a user-supplied size table, and
__qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() amplifies qdisc_pkt_len() through the
overhead, the size-table data (u16), and size_log (up to
STAB_SIZE_LOG_MAX). A crafted stab can therefore set qdisc_pkt_len()
to ~1 GiB for an ordinary skb. Per-flow deficit schedulers such as
DRR and ETS replenish one quantum per loop iteration; with a tiny
quantum (1) they spin billions of times under the qdisc lock,
producing a soft lockup / RCU stall as illustrated by vega@nebusec.ai.
Cap the final qdisc_pkt_len() to QDISC_PKT_LEN_MAX so the size-table
amplification cannot drive deficit schedulers into an unbounded loop.
A legitimate size table (e.g. qfq's overhead 999999999, which is
handled by dropping) is still accepted.
Introduce cap QDISC_PKT_LEN_MAX (1 << 20) = 1 MiB which is well above
any legitimate single-skb wire length: the largest current skb->len
is GSO_MAX_SIZE (524280), and an ATM-style size table (53/48 cell tax)
amplifies that to ~578 KB, both comfortably below 1 MiB. At the same

The MxL862xx driver enables FDB isolation but does not enable assisted
learning on the CPU port. Consequently, MAC addresses learned through a
physical switch port are not updated in hardware when the corresponding
station moves to a foreign bridge port, such as a Wi-Fi interface.
The stale hardware FDB entry continues directing return traffic toward
the original physical port. Traffic entering that same port is then
filtered instead of being forwarded to the CPU and software bridge. This
causes downstream unicast traffic, including DHCP OFFER and ACK packets,
to disappear after a client roams to a local wireless interface. The
client eventually considers the connection unusable and disconnects.
Enable assisted CPU-port learning so DSA installs foreign bridge FDB
entries on the CPU port. This keeps the hardware FDB synchronized with
the software bridge and allows return traffic to reach locally attached
Wi-Fi clients after roaming.
Tested on a BPI R4 PRO with a MxL862xx switch and a BE14000 WiFi interface.
- Without patch, wired uplink on lan6 port (mxl path)
Wifi clients connect but roam away not getting DHCP offers
- Without patch, wired uplink on wan port (no mxl path)
Wifi clients connect and roam successfully
- With this patch, uplink on lan6 (mxl path)

Since the RX path was converted to zero-copy, the page pool page is handed
to the stack directly as the skb head, and the offset the DMA engine writes
at is what determines the alignment of the packet headers.
Before the conversion the payload was copied into an skb obtained from
napi_alloc_skb(), which reserves NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN. The
conversion moved the headroom into stmmac_rx_offset() but did not carry
over NET_IP_ALIGN, so on architectures where NET_IP_ALIGN is 2 the IP
header now lands misaligned:
64 (NET_SKB_PAD) + 14 (ethernet) + 20 (IP) = 98
Same for the XDP branch:
256 (XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM) + 14 (ethernet) + 20 (IP) = 290
On ARM32 this is fatal, because ldm and ldrd trap on unaligned addresses
even when CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set.
Any received echo request panics the machine, e.g:

The faulting instruction is the ldm of *icmp_hdr(skb) in icmp_echo().
Fix by adding NET_IP_ALIGN back to the RX offset, which restores the
alignment the stack used to get.
Note that commit a955318fe6 ("stmmac: align RX buffers") made a similar
change in 2021 and was reverted by commit 12d125b457 ("stmmac: Revert
"stmmac: align RX buffers"") because it caused packet corruption. That
patch raised the offset from 0 without adjusting the buffer size
accounting, so the DMA engine could arguably write past the end of the RX
buffers, though this was never root caused.
Commit df542f6693 ("net: stmmac: Switch to zero-copy in non-XDP RX
path") since derives the page pool allocation from stmmac_rx_offset(), so
the extra bytes are accounted for.

The gso_enabled_types field is used by stmmac_xmit() to decide whether a
GSO skb should be passed to stmmac_tso_xmit(). It is updated in
stmmac_set_features() based solely on NETIF_F_TSO, so disabling IPv4
TSO while keeping IPv6 TSO (NETIF_F_TSO6) enabled zeroes the mask. As a
result IPv6 GSO frames, which the networking stack still generates since
NETIF_F_TSO6 is enabled, fall through to the non-TSO xmit path where
they are not handled.
The networking stack already manages the GSO logic: a GSO skb is only
delivered to the driver when the matching offload feature (NETIF_F_TSO,
NETIF_F_TSO6 or NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_L4) is enabled, otherwise the frame is
segmented in software before reaching ndo_start_xmit().
stmmac_features_check() also validates each GSO frame against the TSO
hardware constraints and falls back to software GSO when they are not met.
Drop the gso_enabled_types field and rely on skb_is_gso() in
stmmac_xmit() instead, which correctly routes IPv6 GSO frames to the TSO
path when NETIF_F_TSO is disabled. This also removes the data race
between stmmac_set_gso_types(), called from the feature-set path, and
the lockless read of gso_enabled_types in stmmac_xmit().

So, only sogfpga is all OK (in all fairness, it doesn't support much)
Several issues :
- MMC test failing on starfive and meson8b, solved by patch 1
MMC counters maintained by the MAC are optional, which one is implemented
depends on how the IP is synthesized. On starfive and meson8b, the counter
used by the selftest to validate the MMC counters feature isn't implemented.
Solved by adding other counters in the validation step, kinda fragile as
this doesn't guarantee this will work on all platforms.
- Flow control test failing on starfive, imx8mp, sun8i, solved by patch 6
Turns out these platforms actually never emit any Pause frame, as they don't
have enough room in their per-queue RX Fifo. They do correctly process RX
Pause frames. The fix isn't to change the advertised pauseparams, as the
pause negotiation process based on MAC capabilities doesn't allow us to
say we "just" support RX pause, so let's just not run the Pause tests if
the RX fifo is too small.
- UC filter failing on meson8b, fixed by patches 2,3,4 and 5
This one is quite the rabbit hole, and is a combination of multiple issues.
- Unicast filtering uses the same filter (perfect filter) to allow the
primary MAC address and the secondary addresses (dev->uc) to flow
through the interface. That means if we have say 64 slots in the
perfect filter, only 63 can be used for the dev->uc list, as the first
entry stores the MAC address. If the filter is full, we switch to UC
promisc mode, were we let all UC frames flow. There's an off-by-one
error in dwmac1000, dwmac4 and dwxgmac2.
- The selftest itself needs an empty slot in the filter, so it has to
check that sizeof(dev->uc) is $number_of_slots - 2 (one for primary
MAC, one for the test). There's an off-by-two error in the selftest.
- This leads to an interesting finding (not addressed by this series) :
The size of the perfect filter isn't reported by the HW, so it comes
from firmware (snps,perfect-filter-entries). A lot of platforms don't
specify that in DT (e.g. imx8mp doesn't, it has 128 entries but the
driver thinks there's only 1...). I've reached out to Synopsys to
see if there's some sane default we could use on dwmac4, if anyone
has a dwmac4 databook I'd appreciate if you could look this up, as I
don't have access to them, I'm not a vendor... Otherwise, we'll have
to patch all the .dtsi if we want to avoid going in UC promisc as
soon as we add an entry in dev->uc.
After this series, socfpga, starfive and sun8i are all OK :)
Some issues are still out there, the VLAN filtering and tagging fails on
imx8mp and stm32 (so, dwmac4) butI haven't got there yet.
ARP offload doesn't work on stm32mp157a and starfive JH7110 either.

On dwmac1000, dwmac4 and dwxgmac, we only emit pause frames if there's
at least 4096 bytes in each queue's fifo.
The phylink mac capabilities are still MAC_ASYM_PAUSE | MAC_SYM_PAUSE as
otherwise we won't be able to negotiate 'rx on' pause. ASYM only will
prevent negotiating 'rx off tx on', while SYM only doesn't really
matche the reality (not symmetric if we can only do RX pause).

On dwmac, one of the Unicast filter entries is used to store the local
HW addr. This means that we have to use promisc mode for any kind of
unicast filtering if we only have one slot in our unicast filter.
The number of slots available depends on how the IP is integrated, and
we can't autodiscover how many of these slots we have available, so
the DT property snps,perfect-filter-entries can be used to specify how
many are available.
Most IP variants default to 1 if this isn't specified, which is the case
for the amlogic variants (in this case, S905X3).
The stmmac selftests for UC filtering look if we have enough slots in
the filter to store the dev->uc list, but doesn't account for the
device's own MAC address. The dev->uc list's size we get with
netdev_uc_count() also doesn't account for the HW addr.
As the selftest only requires one available slot, in the case of
single-slot platforms, that means we erroneously consider we have enough
room for the test, when we actually don't, and the filtering test fails.

The MMC counters report MAC statistics. Multiple counters can be
enabled when the IP is integrated, however there's no way to know
exactly which ones. Un-implemented counters seem to report 0.
It was found that on StarFive JH7110 and Amlogic SM1, the counter that's
used by the selftest (mmc_tx_framecount_g) isn't implemented, triggering
an MMC selftest failure.
Both the above SoCs seem to implement mmc_rx_framecount_gb, let's use
this counter as well for MMC counter validation.
Note that this doesn't guarantee that we won't encounter the same issue
again if another IP implements yet another set of counters that don't
include that new one.
If the game of whack-a-mole with implemented counters becomes too hard to
maintain, we may simply consider removing the MMC selftest entirely.

The combination of checksum offload disabled (that causes software GSO)
and a debug kernel is inherently slow. Depending on the CPU power and
load, RTT may increase, limiting sk_pacing_rate, so tcp_tso_autosize
caps SKBs at around 40 segments, and zero BIG TCP packets are produced.
Increase sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_min_tso_segs and set a bigger initial value
of CWND in these configurations to force BIG TCP.

Both the dynset and newsetelem path clone the existing set expressions
when setting set element expressions if no override expressions are
provided. This results in a double clone, once to clone the template set
expressions then another clone on the new element. Add a flag to
annotate if userspace provides a override expression (ie. expression of
the same type of the set but different configuration), otherwise borrow
the existing expression from the set. Add conditionals to release
expression iif they represent an override. Use this new override_exprs
flag to dump the dynset expression override to userspace.
This simplifies the existing logic and it also fixes a bug with the
connlimit expression which results in a module refcount imbalance
WARNING splat when resorting on the default set expressions.

Remove pr_debug() for these xtables extensions, these have no use
these days. Still, turn pr_debug() into pr_info_ratelimited() in the
.checkentry path since this helps provide a hint via dmesg in legacy
iptables.
Exception is xt_IDLETIMER in the module init path, where pr_err() is
used.
Add missing pr_fmt() definition in xt_REDIRECT, xt_NETMAP and
xt_MASQUERADE.
Add missing \n to several pr_debug() that were translated to use
pr_info_ratelimited().

skb_segment calculates 32-bit partial_segs as len / gso_size, and then
assigns it to the 16-bit gso_segs field. The division might overflow in
some edge cases where the SKB is BIG TCP (65536 <= len <= 8*65535), and
gso_size < TCP_MIN_GSO_SIZE = 8. While normally this can't happen due to
TCP_MIN_GSO_SIZE, an AF_PACKET PACKET_VNET_HDR socket could generate
such a malformed packet until the previous patch.
Blocking malformed virtio_net packets was implemented in the previous
patch, but this patch clamps partial_segs in skb_segment itself for more
generic robustness. Should len / gso_size happen to be bigger than
65535 in partial GSO, skb_segment will now just produce more than two
output SKBs, all of which will be valid with gso_segs <= 65535.
In order to catch possible other cases of too many partial_segs, add a
DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE when len / gso_size happens to be too big.

The user can specify any gso_size in a packet crafted with an AF_PACKET
PACKET_VNET_HDR socket, even smaller than TCP_MIN_GSO_SIZE = 8. At the
same time, GSO_MAX_SIZE = 8 * GSO_MAX_SEGS = 8 * 65535. When the user
crafts a packet with gso_size < 8, there is a risk for partial GSO to
overflow the 16-bit gso_segs field when dividing the SKB length by
gso_size.
Adjust gso_size of TCP packets to be at least TCP_MIN_GSO_SIZE = 8. Keep
gso_size of UDP GSO packets, as gso_size=1 is valid and explicitly
tested at tools/testing/selftests/net/tun.c:649.

The function handles count limit breaches safely by returning
-EOVERFLOW, so a production backtrace is not needed. This prevents

slip_devs[] stores bare net_device pointers and takes no reference on
them. sl_sync() and sl_alloc() walk that table from slip_open() under
rtnl_lock(), while an entry is dropped by sl_free_netdev(), which
sl_setup() installs as dev->priv_destructor.
priv_destructor is called from netdev_run_todo(), which deliberately
runs with the RTNL semaphore released so that it can sleep while waiting
for the device refcount to drop:
/* Snapshot list, allow later requests */
list_replace_init(&net_todo_list, &list);
__rtnl_unlock();
...
if (dev->priv_destructor)
dev->priv_destructor(dev); /* slip_devs[i] = NULL */
if (dev->needs_free_netdev)
free_netdev(dev);
...
/* Free network device */
kobject_put(&dev->dev.kobj);
So rtnl_lock() does not serialise slip_open() against the teardown at
all. sl_sync() can load slip_devs[i] while the entry is still published
and dereference it after netdev_run_todo() has run the destructor and
released the device:
CPU0 (slip_open) CPU1 (slip_close)
unregister_netdev()
rtnl_unlock()
netdev_run_todo()
__rtnl_unlock()
rtnl_lock()
sl_sync()
dev = slip_devs[i]
priv_destructor(dev)
slip_devs[i] = NULL
kobject_put(&dev->dev.kobj)
/* dev is freed */
sl = netdev_priv(dev)
if (sl->tty || sl->leased) /* use-after-free */

Commit e58c191241 ("slip: Fix use-after-free Read in slip_open") fixed
a different source of stale entries - a device left in slip_devs[] after
slip_open() freed it on the registration error path - and does not
address this race, which is why the report survives it.
Drop the entry from ndo_uninit instead. unregister_netdevice() calls
ndo_uninit under RTNL, before the device is queued to netdev_run_todo(),
so an entry that sl_sync() can still see while holding RTNL belongs to a
device that cannot be freed until RTNL is dropped. sl_free_netdev()
stays only for the slip_open() error path, where register_netdevice()
may have failed before ndo_init and ndo_uninit is then not called
either. Both running for the same device is harmless: they run under
the same RTNL section, so the slot cannot have been reused in between.
This also removes the second symptom of the missing exclusion: a
destructor running after sl_alloc() had already handed the slot out to
another channel used to clear a live entry, so sl_sync() stopped at that
NULL, sl_alloc() returned the same index again, and
register_netdevice() failed with -EEXIST because slN was still there.
Reproduced on x86_64 with several threads looping over
open("/dev/ptmx") + ioctl(TIOCSETD, N_SLIP) + close().
