Eric Dumazet 222d7dbd25 net: prevent dst uses after free
In linux-4.13, Wei worked hard to convert dst to a traditional
refcounted model, removing GC.

We now want to make sure a dst refcount can not transition from 0 back
to 1.

The problem here is that input path attached a not refcounted dst to an
skb. Then later, because packet is forwarded and hits skb_dst_force()
before exiting RCU section, we might try to take a refcount on one dst
that is about to be freed, if another cpu saw 1 -> 0 transition in
dst_release() and queued the dst for freeing after one RCU grace period.

Lets unify skb_dst_force() and skb_dst_force_safe(), since we should
always perform the complete check against dst refcount, and not assume
it is not zero.

Similarly dst_clone() can use dst_hold() helper to have additional
debugging, as a follow up to commit 44ebe79149 ("net: add debug
atomic_inc_not_zero() in dst_hold()")

In net-next we will convert dst atomic_t to refcount_t for peace of
mind.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
