What to Know

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bonding: 3ad: implement proper RCU rules for port->aggregator

syzbot found a data-race in bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info /

bond_3ad_state_machine_handler [1] which hints at lack of proper

RCU implementation.

Add __rcu qualifier to port->aggregator, and add proper RCU API.
