net: memcontrol: defer call to mem_cgroup_sk_alloc()
Instead of calling mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() from BH context, it is better to call it from inet_csk_accept() in process context. Not only this removes code in mem_cgroup_sk_alloc(), but it also fixes a bug since listener might have been dismantled and css_get() might cause a use-after-free. Fixes: e994b2f0fb92 ("tcp: do not lock listener to process SYN packets") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
