[PATCH 5.15 16/69] tcp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 01 2022 - 08:04:59 EST


From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 36eeee75ef0157e42fb6593dcc65daab289b559e upstream.

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

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
