From 9a66123182a64083b5f8606dcdd7963e48b90d62 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Doron Roberts-Kedes Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2018 12:11:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] strparser: Do not call mod_delayed_work with a timeout of LONG_MAX [ Upstream commit 7c5aba211dd61f41d737a2c51729eb9fdcd3edf4 ] struct sock's sk_rcvtimeo is initialized to LONG_MAX/MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT in sock_init_data. Calling mod_delayed_work with a timeout of LONG_MAX causes spurious execution of the work function. timer->expires is set equal to jiffies + LONG_MAX. When timer_base->clk falls behind the current value of jiffies, the delta between timer_base->clk and jiffies + LONG_MAX causes the expiration to be in the past. Returning early from strp_start_timer if timeo == LONG_MAX solves this problem. Found while testing net/tls_sw recv path.
