Kuniyuki Iwashima ae8f160e7e netlink: Fix wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.
Netlink has this pattern in some places

  if (atomic_read(&sk->sk_rmem_alloc) > sk->sk_rcvbuf)
  	atomic_add(skb->truesize, &sk->sk_rmem_alloc);

, which has the same problem fixed by commit 5a465a0da1 ("udp:
Fix multiple wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.").

For example, if we set INT_MAX to SO_RCVBUFFORCE, the condition
is always false as the two operands are of int.

Then, a single socket can eat as many skb as possible until OOM
happens, and we can see multiple wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.

Let's fix it by using atomic_add_return() and comparing the two
variables as unsigned int.

Before:
  [root@fedora ~]# ss -f netlink
  Recv-Q      Send-Q Local Address:Port                Peer Address:Port
  -1668710080 0               rtnl:nl_wraparound/293               *

After:
  [root@fedora ~]# ss -f netlink
  Recv-Q     Send-Q Local Address:Port                Peer Address:Port
  2147483072 0               rtnl:nl_wraparound/290               *
  ^

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 reStructuredText 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.
