From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu May 11 2017 - 12:00:37 EST


4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit d68be71ea14d609a5f31534003319be5db422595 ]

avoid direct access to sk->sk_state when tcp_poll() is called on a socket
using active TCP fastopen with deferred connect. Use local variable
'state', which stores the result of sk_state_load(), like it was done in
commit 00fd38d938db ("tcp: ensure proper barriers in lockless contexts").

Fixes: 19f6d3f3c842 ("net/tcp-fastopen: Add new API support")
