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.

At passive MPJ time, if the msk socket lock is held by the user, the new subflow is appended to the msk->join_list under the msk data lock. In mptcp_release_cb()/__mptcp_flush_join_list(), the subflows in that list are moved from the join_list into the conn_list under the msk socket lock. Append and removal could race, possibly corrupting such list. Address the issue splicing the join list into a temporary one while still under the msk data lock. Found by code inspection, the race itself should be almost impossible to trigger in practice.
