[PATCH 3.19 016/177] sock: sock_dequeue_err_skb() needs hard irq safety

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Mar 16 2015 - 10:11:11 EST


3.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 997d5c3f4427f38562cbe207ce05bb25fdcb993b ]

Non NAPI drivers can call skb_tstamp_tx() and then sock_queue_err_skb()
from hard IRQ context.

Therefore, sock_dequeue_err_skb() needs to block hard irq or
corruptions or hangs can happen.

Fixes: 364a9e93243d1 ("sock: deduplicate errqueue dequeue")
Fixes: cb820f8e4b7f7 ("net: Provide a generic socket error queue delivery method for Tx time stamps.")
