[PATCH 5.15 064/201] tcp: Fix data-races around sysctl_tcp_base_mss.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jul 27 2022 - 13:06:52 EST


From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 88d78bc097cd8ebc6541e93316c9d9bf651b13e8 ]

While reading sysctl_tcp_base_mss, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.

Fixes: 5d424d5a674f ("[TCP]: MTU probing")
