Miklos Szeredi 93c5951e0c af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK 
commit cbcf01128d upstream.

unix_gc() assumes that candidate sockets can never gain an external
reference (i.e.  be installed into an fd) while the unix_gc_lock is
held.  Except for MSG_PEEK this is guaranteed by modifying inflight
count under the unix_gc_lock.

MSG_PEEK does not touch any variable protected by unix_gc_lock (file
count is not), yet it needs to be serialized with garbage collection.
Do this by locking/unlocking unix_gc_lock:

 1) increment file count

 2) lock/unlock barrier to make sure incremented file count is visible
    to garbage collection

 3) install file into fd

This is a lock barrier (unlike smp_mb()) that ensures that garbage
collection is run completely before or completely after the barrier.

README 

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.
