2026-05-20wifi: mac80211: fix MLE defragmentationJohannes Berg
If either reconf or EPCS multi-link element (MLE) is contained in a non-transmitted profile, the defragmentation routine is called with a pointer to the defragmented copy, but the original elements. This is incorrect for two reasons: - if the original defragmentation was needed, it will not find the correct data - if the original frame is at a higher address, the parsing will potentially overrun the heap data (though given the layout of the buffers, only into the new defragmentation buffer, and then it has to stop and fail once that's filled with copied data. Fix it by tracking the container along with the pointer and in doing so also unify the two almost identical defragmentation routines.

2026-05-20wifi: mac80211: don't override max_amsdu_subframesEmmanuel Grumbach
In client mode, the extended capabilities are handled by the kernel looking at the association frame. When the supplicant installs the keys it calls sta_apply_parameters and it doesn't include the extended capabilities since those can't change after association. As a result, we overrode the max_amsdu_subframes that we set after association. Check that the ext_capa coming from the user space is valid before looking at it. If the ext_capa is NULL, it really means that the extended capabilities are not changed (as opposed to cleared). The default value for max_amsdu_subframes is 0, which means there is no limit. This value is valid and in case the association response frame does not have extended capabilities, this is the value we should use.

2026-05-20wifi: mac80211: bounds-check link_id in ieee80211_ml_epcsAlexandru Hossu
IEEE80211_MLE_STA_EPCS_CONTROL_LINK_ID is 0x000f, so link_id extracted from a PRIO_ACCESS ML element PER_STA_PROFILE subelement can be 0..15. sdata->link[] has IEEE80211_MLD_MAX_NUM_LINKS (15) entries (indices 0..14), making index 15 out-of-bounds. A connected WiFi 7 AP can trigger this by sending an EPCS Enable Response action frame with a PER_STA_PROFILE subelement where link_id = 15. The unsolicited-notification path (dialog_token = 0) is reachable any time EPCS is already enabled, without any prior client request. sdata->link[15] reads into the first word of sdata->activate_links_work (a wiphy_work whose embedded list_head is non-NULL after INIT_LIST_HEAD), so the NULL check on the result does not catch the invalid access. The garbage pointer is then passed to ieee80211_sta_wmm_params(), which dereferences link->sdata and crashes the kernel. The same class of bug was fixed for ieee80211_ml_reconfiguration() by commit 162d331d833d ("wifi: mac80211: bounds-check link_id in ieee80211_ml_reconfiguration").

2026-05-19af_unix: Fix UAF read of tail->len in unix_stream_data_wait()Jann Horn
unix_stream_data_wait() does skb_peek_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue) without holding any lock that prevents SKBs on that queue from being dequeued and freed. This has been the case since commit 79f632c71bea ("unix/stream: fix peeking with an offset larger than data in queue"). The first consequence of this is that the pointer comparison `tail != last` can be false even if `last` semantically refers to an already-freed SKB while `tail` is a new SKB allocated at the same address; which can cause unix_stream_data_wait() to wrongly keep blocking after new data has arrived, but only in a weird scenario where a peeking recv() and a normal recv() on the same socket are racing, which is probably not a real problem. But since commit 2b514574f7e8 ("net: af_unix: implement splice for stream af_unix sockets"), `tail` is actually dereferenced, which can cause UAF in the following race scenario (where test_setup() runs single-threaded, and afterwards, test_thread1() and test_thread2() run concurrently in two threads: ``` static int socks[2]; void test_setup(void) { socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, socks); send(socks[1], "A", 1, 0); int peekoff = 1; setsockopt(socks[0], SOL_SOCKET, SO_PEEK_OFF, &peekoff, sizeof(peekoff)); } void test_thread1(void) { char dummy; recv(socks[0], &dummy, 1, MSG_PEEK); } void test_thread2(void) { char dummy; recv(socks[0], &dummy, 1, 0); shutdown(socks[1], SHUT_WR); } ``` when racing like this: ``` thread1 thread2 unix_stream_read_generic mutex_lock(&u->iolock) skb_peek(&sk->sk_receive_queue) skb_peek_next(skb, &sk->sk_receive_queue) mutex_unlock(&u->iolock) unix_stream_read_generic unix_state_lock(sk) skb_peek(&sk->sk_receive_queue) unix_state_unlock(sk) unix_stream_data_wait unix_state_lock(sk) tail = skb_peek_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue) spin_lock(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock) __skb_unlink(skb, &sk->sk_receive_queue) spin_unlock(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock) consume_skb(skb) [frees the SKB] `tail != last`: false `tail`: true `tail->len != last_len` ***UAF*** ``` Fix the UAF by removing the read of tail->len; checking tail->len would only make sense if SKBs in the receive queue of a UNIX socket could grow, which can no longer happen. Kuniyuki explained: > When commit 869e7c62486e ("net: af_unix: implement stream sendpage > support") added sendpage() support, data could be appended to the last > skb in the receiver's queue. > > That's why we needed to check if the length of the last skb was changed > while waiting for new data in unix_stream_data_wait(). > > However, commit a0dbf5f818f9 ("af_unix: Support MSG_SPLICE_PAGES") and > commit 57d44a354a43 ("unix: Convert unix_stream_sendpage() to use > MSG_SPLICE_PAGES") refactored sendmsg(), and now data is always added > to a new skb.

2026-05-19ipmr: Replace use of system_unbound_wq with system_dfl_wqMarco Crivellari
This patch continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which has begun with the changes introducing new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag: commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq") commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag") The point of the refactoring is to eventually alter the default behavior of workqueues to become unbound by default so that their workload placement is optimized by the scheduler. Before that to happen, workqueue users must be converted to the better named new workqueues with no intended behaviour changes: system_wq -> system_percpu_wq system_unbound_wq -> system_dfl_wq This way the old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq) can be removed in the future.

2026-05-19bridge: mcast: Fix a possible use-after-free when removing a bridge portIdo Schimmel
When per-VLAN multicast snooping is enabled, the bridge iterates over all the bridge ports, disables the per-port multicast context on each port and enables the per-{port, VLAN} multicast contexts instead. The reverse happens when per-VLAN multicast snooping is disabled. When global multicast snooping is enabled, the bridge iterates over all the bridge ports and enables the per-port multicast context on each port. The reverse happens when multicast snooping is disabled. The above scheme can result in a situation where both types of contexts (per-port and per-{port, VLAN}) are enabled on a single bridge port: # ip link add name br1 up type bridge mcast_snooping 1 mcast_querier 1 vlan_filtering 1 # ip link add name dummy1 up master br1 type dummy # ip link set dev br1 type bridge mcast_vlan_snooping 1 # ip link set dev br1 type bridge mcast_snooping 0 # ip link set dev br1 type bridge mcast_snooping 1 This is not intended and it is a problem since the commit cited below. Prior to this commit, when removing a bridge port, br_multicast_disable_port() would disable the per-port multicast context and the per-{port, VLAN} multicast contexts would get disabled when flushing VLANs. After this commit, br_multicast_disable_port() only disables the per-port multicast context if per-VLAN multicast snooping is disabled. If both types of contexts were enabled on the port when it was removed, the per-port multicast context would remain enabled when freeing the bridge port, leading to a use-after-free [1]. Fix by preventing the bridge from enabling / disabling the per-port multicast contexts when toggling global multicast snooping if per-VLAN multicast snooping is enabled.

2026-05-19mptcp: update window_clamp on subflows when SO_RCVBUF is setGang Yan
Add __mptcp_subflow_set_rcvbuf() helper to write the subflow sk_rcvbuf, but also to call the recently added tcp_set_rcvbuf() helper to update window_clamp. This is needed because the window clap is updated when scaling_ratio changes, in tcp_measure_rcv_mss(). Until scaling_ratio changes, the subflow is stuck with the old window clamp which may be based on a small initial buffer. Use this new helper in both mptcp_sol_socket_sync_intval() (setsockopt path) and sync_socket_options() (new subflow creation path). Note that this patch depends on commit b025461303d8 ("tcp: update window_clamp when SO_RCVBUF is set"): it fixes the issue on TCP side, but the same fix is needed on MPTCP side as well.

At disconnect time such value is not cleared. If the next connection falls back to TCP before the MP handshake completion, the data transfer will keep incrementing the receive window end sequence starting from the last value used in the previous connection: the announced window will be unrelated from the actual receiver buffer size and likely too big.

2026-05-19mptcp: pm: fix ADD_ADDR timer infinite retry on option space insufficientLi Xiasong
When TCP option space is insufficient (e.g., when sending ADD_ADDR with an IPv6 address and port while tcp_timestamps is enabled), the original code jumped to out_unlock without clearing the addr_signal flag. This caused mptcp_pm_add_timer to keep rescheduling indefinitely, not sending ADD_ADDR, preventing subsequent addresses in the endpoint list from being announced. Handle this case by clearing the ADD_ADDR signal and skipping the matching ADD_ADDR retransmission entry. The skip path cancels the matching timer (with id check) and advances PM state progression, preserving forward progress to subsequent PM work. This cancellation is inherently best-effort. A concurrent add_timer callback may already be running and may acquire pm.lock before the cancel path updates entry state. In that case, one final ADD_ADDR transmit attempt can still be executed. Once the cancel path sets entry->retrans_times to ADD_ADDR_RETRANS_MAX, the callback-side retrans_times check suppresses further ADD_ADDR retransmissions. Note that when an ADD_ADDR is being prepared, a pure-ACK is queued. On the output side, it means that it is fine to skip non-pure-ACK packets, when drop_other_suboptions is set: a pure-ACK will be processed soon after.

2026-05-19mptcp: do not drop partial packetsShardul Bankar
When a packet arrives with map_seq < ack_seq < end_seq, the beginning of the packet has already been acknowledged but the end contains new data. Currently the entire packet is dropped as "old data," forcing the sender to retransmit. Instead, skip the already-acked bytes by adjusting the skb offset and enqueue only the new portion. Update bytes_received and ack_seq to reflect the new data consumed. A previous attempt at this fix has been sent by Paolo Abeni [1], but had issues [2]: it also added a zero-window check and changed rcv_wnd_sent initialization, which caused test regressions.

2026-05-19batman-adv: bla: avoid double decrement of bla.num_requestsSven Eckelmann
The bla.num_requests is increased when no request_sent was in progress. And it is decremented in various places (announcement was received, backbone is purged, periodic work). But the check if the request_sent is actually set to a specific state and the atomic_dec/_inc are not safe because they are not atomic (TOCTOU) and multiple such code portions can run concurrently. At the same time, it is necessary to modify request_sent (state) and bla.num_requests atomically. Otherwise batadv_bla_send_request() might set request_sent to 1 and is interrupted. batadv_handle_announce() can then set request_sent back to 0 and decrement num_requests before batadv_bla_send_request() incremented it. The two operations must therefore be locked. And since state (request_sent) and wait_periods are only accessed inside this lock, they can be converted to simpler datatypes. And to avoid that the bla.num_requests is touched by a parallel running context with a valid backbone_gw reference after batadv_bla_purge_backbone_gw() ran, a third state "stopped" is required to correctly signal that a backbone_gw is in the state of being cleaned up.

2026-05-19batman-adv: bla: fix report_work leak on backbone_gw purgeSven Eckelmann
batadv_bla_purge_backbone_gw() removes stale backbone gateway entries, but fails to properly handle their associated report_work: - If report_work is running, the purge must wait for it to finish before freeing the backbone_gw, otherwise the worker may access freed memory (e.g. bat_priv). - If report_work is pending, the purge must cancel it and release the reference held for that pending work item. The previous implementation called hlist_for_each_entry_safe() inside a spin_lock_bh() section, but cancel_work_sync() may sleep and therefore cannot be called from within a spinlock-protected region. Restructure the loop to handle one entry per spinlock critical section: acquire the lock, find the next entry to purge, remove it from the hash list, then release the lock before calling cancel_work_sync() and dropping the hash_entry reference. Repeat until no more entries require purging.

2026-05-19batman-adv: iv: recover OGM scheduling after forward packet errorSven Eckelmann
When batadv_iv_ogm_schedule_buff() fails to allocate and queue a forward packet for OGM transmission, the work item that drives periodic OGM scheduling is never re-armed. This silently halts transmission of the node's own OGMs on the affected interface — only OGMs from other peers continue to be aggregated and forwarded. Fix this by tracking whether batadv_iv_ogm_queue_add() (and transitively batadv_iv_ogm_aggregate_new()) successfully scheduled a forward packet. When scheduling fails, batadv_iv_ogm_schedule_buff() falls back to queuing a dedicated recovery work item (reschedule_work) that fires after one originator interval and calls batadv_iv_ogm_schedule() again.

2026-05-19batman-adv: mcast: fix use-after-free in orig_node RCU releaseSven Eckelmann
batadv_mcast_purge_orig() removes entries from RCU-protected hlists but does not wait for an RCU grace period before returning. Concurrent RCU readers may still accesses references to those entries at the point of removal. RCU-protected readers trying to operate on entries like orig->mcast_want_all_ipv6_node will then access already freed memory. Fix this by moving batadv_mcast_purge_orig() to batadv_orig_node_release(), just before the call_rcu() invocation. This ensures RCU readers that were active at purge time have drained before the orig_node memory is reclaimed.

2026-05-19batman-adv: tp_meter: avoid role confusion in tp_listSven Eckelmann
Session lookups in tp_list matched only on destination address (and optionally session ID), leaving role validation to the caller. If two sessions with the same other_end coexisted (one as sender, one as receiver) a lookup could silently return the wrong one, causing the caller's role to bail out early, potentially skipping necessary cleanup. Move the role check into the lookup functions themselves so the correct entry is always returned, or none at all. Since batadv_tp_start() legitimately needs to detect any active session to a destination regardless of role, introduce a dedicated helper for that case rather than bending the existing lookup semantics.

2026-05-19batman-adv: tp_meter: fix race condition in send error reportingSven Eckelmann
batadv_tp_sender_shutdown() previously used two separate variables to track session state: sending (an atomic flag indicating whether the session was active) and reason (a plain enum storing the stop reason). This introduced a race window between the two writes: after sending was cleared to 0, batadv_tp_send() could observe the stopped state and call batadv_tp_sender_end() before reason was written, causing the wrong stop reason to be reported to the caller. Fix this by consolidating both variables into a single atomic send_result, which holds 0 while the session is running and the stop reason once it ends.

2026-05-19batman-adv: tvlv: reject oversized TVLV packetsSven Eckelmann
batadv_tvlv_container_ogm_append() builds a TVLV packet section from the tvlv.container_list. The total size of this section is computed by batadv_tvlv_container_list_size(), which sums the sizes of all registered containers. The return type and accumulator in batadv_tvlv_container_list_size() were u16. If the accumulated size exceeds U16_MAX, the value wraps around, causing the subsequent allocation in batadv_tvlv_container_ogm_append() to be undersized. The memcpy-style copy that follows would then write beyond the end of the allocated buffer, corrupting kernel memory. Fix this by widening the return type of batadv_tvlv_container_list_size() to size_t. In batadv_tvlv_container_ogm_append(), check the computed length against U16_MAX before proceeding, and bail out as if the allocation had failed when the limit is exceeded.

2026-05-19batman-adv: tvlv: abort OGM send on tvlv append failureSven Eckelmann
batadv_tvlv_container_ogm_append() could fail in two ways: a memory allocation failure when resizing the packet buffer, or the tvlv data exceeding U16_MAX bytes. In both cases the function previously returned the old (now stale) tvlv_value_len rather than signalling an error, causing the OGM/OGM2 send path to transmit a packet whose TVLV length field no longer matched the actual buffer contents. And because it also didn't fill in the new TVLV data, sending either uninitialized or corrupted data on the wire. All errors in batadv_tvlv_container_ogm_append() must be forwarded to the caller. And the caller must abort the send of the OGM2. For B.A.T.M.A.N. IV, it is currently not allowed to abort the send. The non-TVLV part of the OGM must be queued up instead.

2026-05-19batman-adv: v: stop OGMv2 on disabled interfaceSven Eckelmann
When a batadv_hard_iface is disabled, its mesh_iface pointer is set to NULL. However, batadv_v_ogm_send_meshif() may still dispatch OGMs via batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() for interfaces that have since lost their mesh_iface association. This results in a NULL pointer dereference when batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() unconditionally calls netdev_priv() on the now NULL hard_iface->mesh_iface to retrieve the batadv_priv. It is necessary to ensure that the batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() checks that it is using the same mesh_iface for which batadv_v_ogm_send_meshif() was called.

2026-05-18net: devmem: support TX over NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devicesBobby Eshleman
When a netkit virtual device leases queues from a physical NIC, devmem TX bindings created on the netkit device must still result in the dmabuf being mapped for dma by the physical device. This patch accomplishes this by teaching the bind handler to search for the underlying DMA-capable device by looking it up via leased rx queues. The function netdev_find_netmem_tx_dev(), used for finding the underlying DMA-capable device, can be extended to support other non-netkit NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA devices in the future if needed. Additionally, this patch extends validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() to support the netkit case, where the skb is validated twice: once on the netkit guest device and again on the physical NIC after BPF redirect or ip forwarding.

2026-05-18net: convert netmem_tx flag to enumBobby Eshleman
Devices that support netmem TX previously set dev->netmem_tx = true. This was checked in validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() to drop unreadable skbs (skbs with dmabuf-backed frags) before they reach drivers that would mishandle them or devices that would not have the iommu mappings for them. A subsequent patch will introduce a third state for virtual devices that forward unreadable skbs without ever performing DMA on them. To prepare for that, convert the boolean dev->netmem_tx into an enum: NETMEM_TX_NONE - no netmem TX support (drop unreadable skbs) NETMEM_TX_DMA - full support, device does DMA Update the existing NIC drivers (bnxt, gve, mlx5, fbnic) and the validators in net/core to use the new enum.

2026-05-18openvswitch: vport: fix race between linking and the device notifierIlya Maximets
Sashiko reports that it is technically possible that we got the device reference, but by the time we're linking it to the OVS datapath, it may be already in the process of being deleted. In this case if the notifier wins the race for RTNL, it will see that the device is not yet in the OVS datapath (ovs_netdev_get_vport() will fail in the dp_device_event()) and will do nothing. Then the ovs_netdev_link() will take the RTNL and link the unregistering device to OVS datapath. Eventually, netdev_wait_allrefs_any() will re-broadcast the event and the device will be properly detached, but it will take at least a second before that happens, so it's not something we should rely on. Let's avoid linking the non-registered device in the first place. Note: As per documentation, RTNL doesn't protect the reg_state, but it actually does for all the state transitions we care about here, so it should not be necessary to use READ_ONCE or taking the instance lock. We can still do that, but we have a few more places even in this file where the reg_state is accessed without those while under RTNL, and many more places like this across the kernel code, so it might make more sense to change all of them in a more centralized fashion in the future, if necessary.

2026-05-16netfilter: ipset: stop hash:* range iteration at endNan Li
The following hash set variants: hash:ip,mark hash:ip,port hash:ip,port,ip hash:ip,port,net iterate IPv4 ranges with a 32-bit iterator. The iterator must stop once the last address in the requested range has been processed. Advancing it once more can move the traversal state past the end of the request, so a later retry may continue from an unintended position. Handle the iterator increment explicitly at the end of the loop and stop once the upper bound has been processed. This keeps the existing retry behaviour intact for valid ranges while preventing traversal from continuing past the original boundary.

2026-05-16netfilter: nft_inner: Fix IPv6 inner_thoff desyncYizhou Zhao
In nft_inner_parse_l2l3(), when processing inner IPv6 packets, ipv6_find_hdr() correctly computes the transport header offset traversing all extension headers, but the result is immediately overwritten with nhoff + sizeof(_ip6h) (40 bytes), which only accounts for the IPv6 base header. This creates a desync between inner_thoff (wrong — points to extension header start) and l4proto (correct — e.g., IPPROTO_TCP), enabling transport header forgery and potential firewall bypass. This issue affects stable versions from Linux 6.2. For comparison, the normal (non-inner) IPv6 path correctly preserves ipv6_find_hdr()'s result. Removing the incorrect overwrite ensures that ipv6_find_hdr()'s calculated transport header offset is preserved, thereby fixing the desynchronization.

2026-05-16netfilter: ipset: fix a potential dump-destroy raceJozsef Kadlecsik
When dumping sets in order to create the proper order for restore, the list type of sets dumped last. Therefore internally we run the dumping loop twice: first with all non-list type of sets and skipping the list type ones and then secondly for the list type of sets. Sashiko noticed that there's a potential race between dump and destroy if in the first loop the last set was a list type of set: its pointer remains unreferenced and a concurrent destroy can free it. Fix the issue by resetting the variable holding the pointer. Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2026-05-16ipvs: avoid possible loop in ip_vs_dst_event on resizingJulian Anastasov
Sashiko points out that unprivileged user can frequently call ip_vs_flush() or ip_vs_del_service() to trigger svc_table_changes updates that can lead to infinite loop in ip_vs_dst_event(). This can also happen if the user triggers frequent table resizing without deleting all services. We should also consider the possible effects if the user triggers many NETDEV_DOWN events. One way to solve it is to hold svc_resize_sem in ip_vs_dst_event() but this can block the dev notifier during the whole resizing process. Instead, use new rw_semaphore svc_replace_sem to protect just the svc_table replacement which is a short code section. Then hold svc_replace_sem in ip_vs_dst_event() to serialize with replacing the svc_table. As result, loop is avoided as there is no need to repeat the table walking from the start. By this way changes in svc_table_changes can happen only when all services are removed and all dev references dropped which allows us to abort the table walking. As IP_VS_WORK_SVC_NORESIZE is the flag used to stop the svc_resize_work under service_mutex, we should check only this flag often but not while under service_mutex. To remove the mutex_trylock() for service_mutex in the second phase where the resizer installs the new table after rehashing, we will avoid holding the service_mutex there. As result, the code in configuration context which is under service_mutex should access ipvs->svc_table under RCU because it can be replaced at anytime and released after a RCU grace period. As for ip_vs_zero_all(), it needs different solution as a table walker which can escape single RCU read-side critical section: to hold the svc_replace_sem to prevent table to be replaced. In ip_vs_status_show() prefer to hold svc_replace_sem to avoid many loops, just detect if the svc_table is removed. Prefer the newly attached table for the u_thresh/l_thresh checks to know when to grow/shrink while adding or deleting services because the new table size is based on the latest parameters.

2026-05-16xfrm: ah: use skb_to_full_sk in async output callbacksMichael Bommarito
When AH output is offloaded to an asynchronous crypto provider (hardware accelerators such as AMD CCP, or a forced-async software shim used for testing), the digest completion fires ah_output_done() / ah6_output_done() on a workqueue. The egress skb at that point may have been originated by a TCP listener sending a SYN-ACK, which sets skb->sk to a request_sock via skb_set_owner_edemux(); it may also have been originated by an inet_timewait_sock retransmit. Neither is a full struct sock, and passing the raw skb->sk to xfrm_output_resume() then forwards a non-full socket through the rest of the xfrm output chain. xfrm_output_resume() and its downstream consumers expect a full sk where they dereference at all. The natural egress path through ah_output_done() does not crash today because the consumers that read past sock_common are either gated by sk_fullsock() or short-circuit on flags that are clear on a fresh request_sock; an exhaustive walk of the 50 most plausible consumers under sch_fq, dev_queue_xmit, netfilter, tc-egress and cgroup-egress BPF found no current unguarded deref. The bug is still a real type confusion that future consumer changes could turn into a memory-corruption primitive. This is the same bug class fixed for ESP in commit 1620c88887b1 ("xfrm: Fix the usage of skb->sk"). Apply the analogous fix to AH: convert skb->sk to a full socket pointer (or NULL) via skb_to_full_sk() before handing it to xfrm_output_resume(). The same async AH callbacks were touched recently for an independent ESN-related ICV layout bug in commit ec54093e6a8f ("xfrm: ah: account for ESN high bits in async callbacks"); the sk type-confusion addressed here is orthogonal. This patch is part of an ongoing audit of the AH callback paths; an ah_output ihl-validation hardening series is also currently under review on netdev. Reproduced under UML + KASAN + lockdep with a forced-async hmac(sha1) shim that registers at priority 9999 and wraps the sync in-tree hmac-sha1-lib. With the shim loaded, ah_output_done runs on every SYN-ACK egress through a transport-mode AH SA and skb->sk arrives as a request_sock (TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV); after this patch, xfrm_output_resume() receives the listener (the result of sk_to_full_sk()) and consumer derefs land on full-sock fields as intended.

2026-05-15net: hsr: defer node table free until after RCU readersMichael Bommarito
HSR node-list and node-status generic-netlink operations run under rcu_read_lock(). They walk hsr->node_db through hsr_get_next_node() and hsr_get_node_data(), but RTM_DELLINK teardown removes the same node table with plain list_del() and frees each node immediately. That lets a generic-netlink reader hold a struct hsr_node pointer across hsr_dellink(). In a KASAN build, widening the reader window after hsr_get_next_node() obtains the node reproduces a slab-use-after-free when the reader copies node->macaddress_A; the freeing stack is hsr_del_nodes() from hsr_dellink(). Use list_del_rcu() and defer the free through the existing hsr_free_node_rcu() callback. This matches the lifetime rule used by the HSR prune paths, which already delete nodes with list_del_rcu() and call_rcu().
