From 4ad19de8774e2a7b075b3e8ea48db85adcf33fa6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Kodanev Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 12:24:22 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net: tcp6: fix double call of tcp_v6_fill_cb() tcp_v6_fill_cb() will be called twice if socket's state changes from TCP_TIME_WAIT to TCP_LISTEN. That can result in control buffer data corruption because in the second tcp_v6_fill_cb() call it's not copying IP6CB(skb) anymore, but 'seq', 'end_seq', etc., so we can get weird and unpredictable results. Performance loss of up to 1200% has been observed in LTP/vxlan03 test. This can be fixed by copying inet6_skb_parm to the beginning of 'cb' only if xfrm6_policy_check() and tcp_v6_fill_cb() are going to be called again.
