mainlining shenanigans
2443ca6667
If the skb_verdict_prog redirects an skb knowingly to itself, fix your
BPF program this is not optimal and an abuse of the API please use
SK_PASS. That said there may be cases, such as socket load balancing,
where picking the socket is hashed based or otherwise picks the same
socket it was received on in some rare cases. If this happens we don't
want to confuse userspace giving them an EAGAIN error if we can avoid
it.
To avoid double accounting in these cases. At the moment even if the
skb has already been charged against the sockets rcvbuf and forward
alloc we check it again and do set_owner_r() causing it to be orphaned
and recharged. For one this is useless work, but more importantly we
can have a case where the skb could be put on the ingress queue, but
because we are under memory pressure we return EAGAIN. The trouble
here is the skb has already been accounted for so any rcvbuf checks
include the memory associated with the packet already. This rolls
up and can result in unnecessary EAGAIN errors in userspace read()
calls.
Fix by doing an unlikely check and skipping checks if skb->sk == sk.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
