I see.
But this can't possibly be a dup of that bug. That bug was fixed in February:
Apologies, I unknowingly made a mistake in my syzbot-tiquette in that case, I did not intend to *close* the bug as a dup, I was merely trying to indicate that this is yet another manifestation of the original report with subject "KASAN: use-after-free Read in rds_find_bound" All of these problems are happening because we are missing a synchronize_net() in rds_release. A full description of the race conditon can be found in https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg475074.html If rds_release is going to nuke the rds_socket it needs to sychronize_net() with other threads that may be looking up the bind_hash_table. If we dont do that, all of these "use-after-free" races can happen. As long as we dont have the synchronize_net() we are missing a big (and standard) bit of RCU synchronization. --Sowmini
