[PATCH 1/2] tcp: fix races in tcp_abort()

From: Youngmin Nam
Date: Fri Mar 14 2025 - 05:21:43 EST


From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

tcp_abort() has the same issue than the one fixed in the prior patch
in tcp_write_err().

commit 5ce4645c23cf5f048eb8e9ce49e514bababdee85 upstream.

To apply commit bac76cf89816bff06c4ec2f3df97dc34e150a1c4,
this patch must be applied first.

In order to get consistent results from tcp_poll(), we must call
sk_error_report() after tcp_done().

We can use tcp_done_with_error() to centralize this logic.

Fixes: c1e64e298b8c ("net: diag: Support destroying TCP sockets.")
