From: Xuanqiang Luo <redacted> After replacing R/W locks with RCU in commit 3ab5aee7fe84 ("net: Convert TCP & DCCP hash tables to use RCU / hlist_nulls"), a race window emerged during the switch from reqsk/sk to sk/tw. Now that both timewait sock (tw) and full sock (sk) reside on the same ehash chain, it is appropriate to introduce hlist_nulls replace operations, to eliminate the race conditions caused by this window. --- Changes: v2: * Patch 1 * Use WRITE_ONCE() to initialize old->pprev. * Patch 2&3 * Optimize sk hashed check. Thanks Kuni for pointing it out! v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250915070308.111816-1-xuanqiang.luo@linux.dev/ (local)Note : I think you sent an earlier version, you should have added a link to the discussion, and past feedback/suggestions. Lack of credit is a bit annoying frankly. I will take a look at your series, thanks.This patch's solution isn't very related to previous ones, so I didn't include prior discussions.This is completely related, aiming to fix the same issue, do not try to pretend otherwise. Really, adding more context and acknowledging that reviewers made suggestions would be quite fair. This is a difficult series, with a lot of potential bugs, you need to bring us on board.
I understand your point. I’m sorry for wasting your time on this. Please disregard this series submission — I will send the next version soon, which will include the mentioned background information. I apologize again for my misunderstanding. Thanks Xuanqiang.
