Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.

tp->fastopen_req could potentially be double freed if a malicious user does the following: 1. Enable TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT sockopt and do a connect() on the socket. 2. Call connect() with AF_UNSPEC to disconnect the socket. 3. Make this socket a listening socket by calling listen(). 4. Accept incoming connections and generate child sockets. All child sockets will get a copy of the pointer of fastopen_req. 5. Call close() on all sockets. fastopen_req will get freed multiple times.
