[PATCH 4.3 50/55] fou: clean up socket with kfree_rcu
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jan 20 2016 - 19:50:34 EST
4.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 3036facbb7be3a169e35be3b271162b0fa564a2d ]
fou->udp_offloads is managed by RCU. As it is actually included inside
the fou sockets, we cannot let the memory go out of scope before a grace
period. We either can synchronize_rcu or switch over to kfree_rcu to
manage the sockets. kfree_rcu seems appropriate as it is used by vxlan
and geneve.
