From aadd4355918fe6e9044a9042fa5968e0a0901681 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Borkmann Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2018 21:31:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tcp, ulp: remove socket lock assertion on ULP cleanup Eric reported that syzkaller triggered a splat in tcp_cleanup_ulp() where assertion sock_owned_by_me() failed. This happened through inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() first releasing the socket lock, then calling into tcp_done(newsk) which is called after the inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() and therefore without the socket lock held. The sock_owned_by_me() assertion can generally be removed as the only place where tcp_cleanup_ulp() is called from now is out of inet_csk_destroy_sock() -> sk->sk_prot->destroy() where socket is in dead state and unreachable. Therefore, add a comment why the check is not needed instead.
