net: sk_clone_lock() should only do get_net() if the parent is not a …
…kernel socket The newsk returned by sk_clone_lock should hold a get_net() reference if, and only if, the parent is not a kernel socket (making this similar to sk_alloc()). E.g,. for the SYN_RECV path, tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock->..inet_csk_clone_lock sets up the syn_recv newsk from sk_clone_lock. When the parent (listen) socket is a kernel socket (defined in sk_alloc() as having sk_net_refcnt == 0), then the newsk should also have a 0 sk_net_refcnt and should not hold a get_net() reference. Fixes: 26abe14 ("net: Modify sk_alloc to not reference count the netns of kernel sockets.") Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Cc: Eric W.
