[PATCH 5.15 123/244] netfilter: nf_tables: use READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE for shared generation id access

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 23 2022 - 06:09:07 EST


From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3400278328285a8c2f121904496aff5e7b610a01 upstream.

The generation ID is bumped from the commit path while holding the
mutex, however, netlink dump operations rely on RCU.

This patch also adds missing cb->base_eq initialization in
nf_tables_dump_set().

Fixes: 38e029f14a97 ("netfilter: nf_tables: set NLM_F_DUMP_INTR if netlink dumping is stale")
