>Description:
When there's no established session, wg_output stashes the packet the caller is trying to transmit in a single-entry queue before initiating a session:
4241 /*
4242 * No established session. If we're the first to try
4243 * sending data, schedule a handshake and queue the
4244 * packet for when the handshake is done; otherwise
4245 * just drop the packet and let the ongoing handshake
4246 * attempt continue. We could queue more data packets
4247 * but it's not clear that's worthwhile.
4248 */
4249 if ((m = atomic_swap_ptr(&wgp->wgp_pending, m)) == NULL) {
4250 WG_TRACE("queued first packet; init handshake");
4251 wg_schedule_peer_task(wgp, WGP_TASK_SEND_INIT_MESSAGE);
https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/sys/net/if_wg.c?r=1.122#4241
That way, once the session is established, the queued packet can be transmitted right away:
2075 /*
2076 * If we had a data packet queued up, send it.
2077 *
2078 * If not, but we're the initiator, send a keepalive message --
2079 * if we're the initiator we have to send something immediately
2080 * or else the responder will never answer.
2081 */
2082 if ((m = atomic_swap_ptr(&wgp->wgp_pending, NULL)) != NULL) {
2083 kpreempt_disable();
2084 const uint32_t h = curcpu()->ci_index; // pktq_rps_hash(m)
2085 M_SETCTX(m, wgp);
2086 if (__predict_false(!pktq_enqueue(wg_pktq, m, h))) {
2087 WGLOG(LOG_ERR, "%s: pktq full, dropping\n",
2088 if_name(&wg->wg_if));
2089 m_freem(m);
2090 }
2091 kpreempt_enable();
https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/sys/net/if_wg.c?r=1.122#2075
However, nothing guarantees the initialization of m in the caller of wg_output happens-before the use of m to transmit it.
>How-To-Repeat:
code inspection
>Fix:
membar_release and membar_acquire
