It is racy on audit_sock, especially on the netns exit path.

I think that is the only place it is racy.  The other places audit_sock
is set is when the socket failure has just triggered a reset.

Is there a notifier callback for failed or reaped sockets?

Is NETLINK_URELEASE event what you are looking for?

Possibly, yes.  Thanks, I'll have a look.

I tried a quick compile attempt on the test case (I assume it is a
socket fuzzer) and get the following compile error:
cc -g -O0 -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE -o socket_fuzz socket_fuzz.c
socket_fuzz.c:16:1: warning: "_GNU_SOURCE" redefined

I also tried to extend Cong Wang's idea to attempt to proactively respond to a
NETLINK_URELEASE on the audit_sock and reset it, but ran into a locking error
stack dump using mutex_lock(&audit_cmd_mutex) in the notifier callback.
Eliminating the lock since the sock is dead anways eliminates the error.

Is it safe?  I'll resubmit if this looks remotely sane.  Meanwhile I'll try to
get the test case to compile.

This is being tracked as https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/30
