[PATCH 5.18 64/88] ipv4: Fix data-races around sysctl_fib_notify_on_flag_change.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Aug 01 2022 - 08:19:54 EST


From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 96b9bd8c6d125490f9adfb57d387ef81a55a103e ]

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

Fixes: 680aea08e78c ("net: ipv4: Emit notification when fib hardware flags are changed")
