CVS commit: src/sys/net
Module Name: src
Committed By: ozaki-r
Date: Wed Feb 27 04:03:06 UTC 2019
Modified Files:
src/sys/net: rtsock.c
Log Message:
Protect sysctl_rtable with KERNEL_LOCK and softnet_lock
In the function the routing table could be accessed without any locks, which was
unsafe. Actually, on netbsd-7, a kernel panic happened(*). The situation of
locking hasn't changed since netbsd-7 so we still need to hold the big locks on
-current (and netbsd-8) too.
Note that if NET_MPSAFE is enabled, the routing table is protected by its own
lock and we don't need the locks.
Reported and tested on netbsd-7 by sborrill@
