sk->sk_prot and sk->sk_prot_creator can differ when the app uses IPV6_ADDRFORM (transforming an IPv6-socket to an IPv4-one). Which is why sk_prot_creator is there to make sure that sk_prot_free() does the kmem_cache_free() on the right kmem_cache slab. Now, if such a socket gets transformed back to a listening socket (using connect() with AF_UNSPEC) we will allocate an IPv4 tcp_sock through sk_clone_lock() when a new connection comes in. But sk_prot_creator will still point to the IPv6 kmem_cache (as everything got copied in sk_clone_lock()). When freeing, we will thus put this memory back into the IPv6 kmem_cache although it was allocated in the IPv4 cache. I have seen memory corruption happening because of this. With slub-debugging and MEMCG_KMEM enabled this gives the warning "cache_from_obj: Wrong slab cache. TCPv6 but object is from TCP" A C-program to trigger this: void main(void) { int fd = socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); int new_fd, newest_fd, client_fd; struct sockaddr_in6 bind_addr; struct sockaddr_in bind_addr4, client_addr1, client_addr2; struct sockaddr unsp; int val; memset(&bind_addr, 0, sizeof(bind_addr)); bind_addr.sin6_family = AF_INET6; bind_addr.sin6_port = ntohs(42424); memset(&client_addr1, 0, sizeof(client_addr1)); client_addr1.sin_family = AF_INET; client_addr1.sin_port = ntohs(42424); client_addr1.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1"); memset(&client_addr2, 0, sizeof(client_addr2)); client_addr2.sin_family = AF_INET; client_addr2.sin_port = ntohs(42421); client_addr2.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1"); memset(&unsp, 0, sizeof(unsp)); unsp.sa_family = AF_UNSPEC; bind(fd, (struct sockaddr *)&bind_addr, sizeof(bind_addr)); listen(fd, 5); client_fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); connect(client_fd, (struct sockaddr *)&client_addr1, sizeof(client_addr1)); new_fd = accept(fd, NULL, NULL); close(fd); val = AF_INET; setsockopt(new_fd, SOL_IPV6, IPV6_ADDRFORM, &val, sizeof(val)); connect(new_fd, &unsp, sizeof(unsp)); memset(&bind_addr4, 0, sizeof(bind_addr4)); bind_addr4.sin_family = AF_INET; bind_addr4.sin_port = ntohs(42421); bind(new_fd, (struct sockaddr *)&bind_addr4, sizeof(bind_addr4)); listen(new_fd, 5); client_fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); connect(client_fd, (struct sockaddr *)&client_addr2, sizeof(client_addr2)); newest_fd = accept(new_fd, NULL, NULL); close(new_fd); close(client_fd); close(new_fd); } As far as I can see, this bug has been there since the beginning of the git-days.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
