netfilter: nfnetlink: fix splat due to incorrect socket memory accounting in skbuff clones
If we attach the sk to the skb from nfnetlink_rcv_batch(), then netlink_skb_destructor() will underflow the socket receive memory counter and we get warning splat when releasing the socket. $ cat /proc/net/netlink sk Eth Pid Groups Rmem Wmem Dump Locks Drops Inode ffff8800ca903000 12 0 00000000 -54144 0 0 2 0 17942 ^^^^^^ Rmem above shows an underflow. And here below the warning splat: [ 1363.815976] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1356 at net/netlink/af_netlink.c:958 netlink_sock_destruct+0x80/0xb9() [...] [ 1363.816152] CPU: 2 PID: 1356 Comm: kworker/u16:1 Tainted: G W 4.4.0-rc1+ #153 [ 1363.816155] Hardware name: LENOVO 23259H1/23259H1, BIOS G2ET32WW (1.12 ) 05/30/2012 [ 1363.816160] Workqueue: netns cleanup_net [ 1363.816163] 0000000000000000 ffff880119203dd0 ffffffff81240204 0000000000000000 [ 1363.816169] ffff880119203e08 ffffffff8104db4b ffffffff813d49a1 ffff8800ca771000 [ 1363.816174] ffffffff81a42b00 0000000000000000 ffff8800c0afe1e0 ffff880119203e18 [ 1363.816179] Call Trace: [ 1363.816181] <IRQ> [<ffffffff81240204>] dump_stack+0x4e/0x79 [ 1363.816193] [<ffffffff8104db4b>] warn_slowpath_common+0x9a/0xb3 [ 1363.816197] [<ffffffff813d49a1>] ? netlink_sock_destruct+0x80/0xb9 skb->sk was only needed to lookup for the netns, however we don't need this anymore since 633c9a840d0b ("netfilter: nfnetlink: avoid recurrent netns lookups in call_batch") so this patch removes this manual socket assignment to resolve this problem.
