net: annotate races around sk->sk_uid

edumazet · gregkh · commit 091b87b0499e · 2025-08-12T19:33:07.000+02:00
[ Upstream commit e84a492 ] sk->sk_uid can be read while another thread changes its value in sockfs_setattr(). Add sk_uid(const struct sock *sk) helper to factorize the needed READ_ONCE() annotations, and add corresponding WRITE_ONCE() where needed. Fixes: 86741ec ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.")
