[PATCH 5.10 19/65] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 01 2022 - 07:53:29 EST


From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9fb90193fbd66b4c5409ef729fd081861f8b6351 upstream.

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

Fixes: 46d3ceabd8d9 ("tcp: TCP Small Queues")
