Milk-V Jupiter Linux kernel
[ Upstream commit fb86c42a2a5d44e849ddfbc98b8d2f4f40d36ee3 ]
In the bpf_out_neigh_v6 function, rcu_read_lock() is used to begin an RCU
read-side critical section. However, when unlocking, one branch
incorrectly uses a different RCU unlock flavour rcu_read_unlock_bh()
instead of rcu_read_unlock(). This mismatch in RCU locking flavours can
lead to unexpected behavior and potential concurrency issues.
This possible bug was identified using a static analysis tool developed
by myself, specifically designed to detect RCU-related issues.
This patch corrects the mismatched unlock flavour by replacing the
incorrect rcu_read_unlock_bh() with the appropriate rcu_read_unlock(),
ensuring that the RCU critical section is properly exited. This change
prevents potential synchronization issues and aligns with proper RCU
usage patterns.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
