From def5b7b2643ebba696fc60ddf675dca13f073486 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Abeni pabeni@redhat.com Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2025 18:41:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mptcp: plug races between subflow fail and subflow creation
We have races similar to the one addressed by the previous patch between subflow failing and additional subflow creation. They are just harder to trigger.
The solution is similar. Use a separate flag to track the condition 'socket state prevent any additional subflow creation' protected by the fallback lock.
The socket fallback makes such flag true, and also receiving or sending an MP_FAIL option.
The field 'allow_infinite_fallback' is now always touched under the relevant lock, we can drop the ONCE annotation on write.
