[PATCH net 1/9] netfilter: nf_tables: fix false-positive lockdep splat

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
Date: 2023-08-15 22:30:26
Also in: netfilter-devel
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

->abort invocation may cause splat on debug kernels:

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
net/netfilter/nft_set_pipapo.c:1697 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
[..]
rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
1 lock held by nft/133554: [..] (nft_net->commit_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: nf_tables_valid_genid

Transaction mutex is held, so parallel updates are not possible.
Switch to _protected and check mutex is held for lockdep enabled builds.
