Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

My prior fix went a bit too far, according to Herbert and Mathieu. Since we accept that concurrent TCP MD5 lookups might see inconsistent keys, we can use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() instead of smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() Clearing all key->key[] is needed to avoid possible KMSAN reports, if key->keylen is increased. Since tcp_md5_do_add() is not fast path, using __GFP_ZERO to clear all struct tcp_md5sig_key is simpler. data_race() was added in linux-5.8 and will prevent KCSAN reports, this can safely be removed in stable backports, if data_race() is not yet backported. v2: use data_race() both in tcp_md5_hash_key() and tcp_md5_do_add() Fixes: 6a2febec ("tcp: md5: add missing memory barriers in tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key()") Signed-off-by:Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Cc: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Reviewed-by:
