[ Upstream commit 3ff8bff704f4de125dca2262e5b5b963a3da1d87 ]
There is a race resulting in alive SOCK_SEQPACKET socket
may change its state from TCP_ESTABLISHED to TCP_CLOSE:
unix_release_sock(peer) unix_dgram_sendmsg(sk)
sock_orphan(peer)
sock_set_flag(peer, SOCK_DEAD)
sock_alloc_send_pskb()
if !(sk->sk_shutdown & SEND_SHUTDOWN)
OK
if sock_flag(peer, SOCK_DEAD)
sk->sk_state = TCP_CLOSE
sk->sk_shutdown = SHUTDOWN_MASK
After that socket sk remains almost normal: it is able to connect, listen, accept
and recvmsg, while it can't sendmsg.
Since this is the only possibility for alive SOCK_SEQPACKET to change
the state in such way, we should better fix this strange and potentially
danger corner case.
Note, that we will return EPIPE here like this is normally done in sock_alloc_send_pskb().
Originally used ECONNREFUSED looks strange, since it's strange to return
a specific retval in dependence of race in kernel, when user can't affect on this.
Also, move TCP_CLOSE assignment for SOCK_DGRAM sockets under state lock
to fix race with unix_dgram_connect():
unix_dgram_connect(other) unix_dgram_sendmsg(sk)
unix_peer(sk) = NULL
unix_state_unlock(sk)
unix_state_double_lock(sk, other)
sk->sk_state = TCP_ESTABLISHED
unix_peer(sk) = other
unix_state_double_unlock(sk, other)
sk->sk_state = TCP_CLOSED
This patch fixes both of these races.

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.
