[PATCH net] net/smc: Transitional solution for clcsock race issue

From: Wen Gu
Date: Thu Jan 13 2022 - 10:03:17 EST


We encountered a crash in smc_setsockopt() and it is caused by
accessing smc->clcsock after clcsock was released.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020

This patch tries to fix it by holding clcsock_release_lock and
checking whether clcsock has already been released before access.

In case that a crash of the same reason happens in smc_getsockopt()
or smc_switch_to_fallback(), this patch also checkes smc->clcsock
in them too. And the caller of smc_switch_to_fallback() will identify
whether fallback succeeds according to the return value.
