net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts
commit c6cffba4ffa2 (ipv4: Fix input route performance regression.) added various fatal races with dst refcounts. crashes happen on tcp workloads if routes are added/deleted at the same time. The dst_free() calls from free_fib_info_rcu() are clearly racy. We need instead regular dst refcounting (dst_release()) and make sure dst_release() is aware of RCU grace periods : Add DST_RCU_FREE flag so that dst_release() respects an RCU grace period before dst destruction for cached dst Introduce a new inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper, using atomic_inc_not_zero() to make sure we dont increase a zero refcount (On a dst currently waiting an rcu grace period before destruction) rt_cache_route() must take a reference on the new cached route, and release it if was not able to install it. With this patch, my machines survive various benchmarks. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
