[PATCH 5.15 47/69] tcp: Fix data-races around sk_pacing_rate.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 01 2022 - 08:08:42 EST


From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 59bf6c65a09fff74215517aecffbbdcd67df76e3 ]

While reading sysctl_tcp_pacing_(ss|ca)_ratio, they can be changed
concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to their readers.

Fixes: 43e122b014c9 ("tcp: refine pacing rate determination")
