Because the lockless reads\nand the locked writes are unordered with respect to each other, a\nracing bcm_notify() (device unregister) or bcm_connect() (concurrent\nbind on another thread sharing the socket) can make bcm_sendmsg()\nobserve an inconsistent combination, e.g. a stale bound=1 together\nwith the now-cleared ifindex=0, silently turning a socket bound to a\nspecific CAN interface into one that also matches \"any\" interface.\n\nKeep the lockless bo->bound check purely as a fast-path reject, and\nmove the ifindex read (and a bo->bound re-check) into the locked\nsection, where every writer already serializes. This removes the\npossibility of observing the two fields torn against each other,\nrather than trying to fix it with more READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() pairs\non two independently updated fields. Annotate the now-purely-lockless\nbo->bound accesses consistently across all its write sites.\n\nAlso fix bcm_rx_setup() silently returning success when the target\ndevice disappears concurrently instead of reporting -ENODEV, so a\nbroken RX op is no longer left registered as if it had succeeded." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected",
