Kuniyuki Iwashima f1683d07eb af_unix: Use unix_recvq_full_lockless() in unix_stream_connect(). 
[ Upstream commit 45d872f0e6 ]

Once sk->sk_state is changed to TCP_LISTEN, it never changes.

unix_accept() takes advantage of this characteristics; it does not
hold the listener's unix_state_lock() and only acquires recvq lock
to pop one skb.

It means unix_state_lock() does not prevent the queue length from
changing in unix_stream_connect().

Thus, we need to use unix_recvq_full_lockless() to avoid data-race.

Now we remove unix_recvq_full() as no one uses it.

Note that we can remove READ_ONCE() for sk->sk_max_ack_backlog in
unix_recvq_full_lockless() because of the following reasons:

  (1) For SOCK_DGRAM, it is a written-once field in unix_create1()

  (2) For SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET, it is changed under the
      listener's unix_state_lock() in unix_listen(), and we hold
      the lock in unix_stream_connect()

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.
