net: sched: fix use-after-free in taprio_change()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit f504465 ]

In 'taprio_change()', 'admin' pointer may become dangling due to sched
switch / removal caused by 'advance_sched()', and critical section
protected by 'q->current_entry_lock' is too small to prevent from such
a scenario (which causes use-after-free detected by KASAN). Fix this
by prefer 'rcu_replace_pointer()' over 'rcu_assign_pointer()' to update
'admin' immediately before an attempt to schedule freeing.

Fixes: a3d43c0 ("taprio: Add support adding an admin schedule")
