[PATCH 4.14 08/37] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_probe_interval.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jul 27 2022 - 12:26:29 EST


From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2a85388f1d94a9f8b5a529118a2c5eaa0520d85c ]

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

Fixes: 05cbc0db03e8 ("ipv4: Create probe timer for tcp PMTU as per RFC4821")
