Title
net: annotate races around sk->sk_bound_dev_if
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: annotate races around sk->sk_bound_dev_if UDP sendmsg() is lockless, and reads sk->sk_bound_dev_if while this field can be changed by another thread. Adds minimal annotations to avoid KCSAN splats for UDP. Following patches will add more annotations to potential lockless readers. BUG: KCSAN: data-race in __ip6_datagram_connect / udpv6_sendmsg write to 0xffff888136d47a94 of 4 bytes by task 7681 on cpu 0: __ip6_datagram_connect+0x6e2/0x930 net/ipv6/datagram.c:221 ip6_datagram_connect+0x2a/0x40 net/ipv6/datagram.c:272 inet_dgram_connect+0x107/0x190 net/ipv4/af_inet.c:576 __sys_connect_file net/socket.c:1900 [inline] __sys_connect+0x197/0x1b0 net/socket.c:1917 __do_sys_connect net/socket.c:1927 [inline] __se_sys_connect net/socket.c:1924 [inline] __x64_sys_connect+0x3d/0x50 net/socket.c:1924 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x2b/0x50 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae read to 0xffff888136d47a94 of 4 bytes by task 7670 on cpu 1: udpv6_sendmsg+0xc60/0x16e0 net/ipv6/udp.c:1436 inet6_sendmsg+0x5f/0x80 net/ipv6/af_inet6.c:652 sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:705 [inline] sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:725 [inline] ____sys_sendmsg+0x39a/0x510 net/socket.c:2413 ___sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2467 [inline] __sys_sendmmsg+0x267/0x4c0 net/socket.c:2553 __do_sys_sendmmsg net/socket.c:2582 [inline] __se_sys_sendmmsg net/socket.c:2579 [inline] __x64_sys_sendmmsg+0x53/0x60 net/socket.c:2579 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x2b/0x50 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae value changed: 0x00000000 -> 0xffffff9b Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: CPU: 1 PID: 7670 Comm: syz-executor.3 Tainted: G W 5.18.0-rc1-syzkaller-dirty #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 I chose to not add Fixes: tag because race has minor consequences and stable teams busy enough.
