[PATCH net v6 0/4] Fix race conditions in ndo_get_stats64

From: Shinas Rasheed
Date: Fri Jan 10 2025 - 07:31:01 EST


Fix race conditions in ndo_get_stats64 by storing tx/rx stats
locally and not availing per queue resources which could be torn
down during interface stop. Also remove stats fetch from
firmware which is currently unnecessary

Changes:
V6:
- Corrected patch 2/4 which was not applying properly

V5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250109103221.2544467-1-srasheed@xxxxxxxxxxx/
- Store tx/rx stats locally and avail use stats in ndo_get_stats64()
instead of availing per queue resources there.

V4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250102112246.2494230-1-srasheed@xxxxxxxxxxx/
- Check if netdev is running, as decision for accessing resources
rather than availing lock implementations, in ndo_get_stats64()

V3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241218115111.2407958-1-srasheed@xxxxxxxxxxx/
- Added warn log that happened due to rcu_read_lock in commit message

V2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241216075842.2394606-1-srasheed@xxxxxxxxxxx/
- Changed sync mechanism to fix race conditions from using an atomic
set_bit ops to a much simpler synchronize_net()

V1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241203072130.2316913-1-srasheed@xxxxxxxxxxx/
