There are potential concurrency issues, as shown below.

RCU is not applicable to Unix sockets read path, because the Unix socket
implementation itself assumes it's always in process context and heavily
uses mutex_lock, so, we can't call read_skb within rcu lock.

Incrementing the psock reference count would not help either, since
sock_map_close() does not wait for data_ready() to complete its execution.

While we don't utilize sk_socket here, implementing read_skb at the sock
layer instead of socket layer might be architecturally preferable ?
However, deferring this optimization as current fix adequately addresses
the immediate issue.

Hm, I guess the RCU work in sk_psock_drop() does not work for Unix
domain sockets either?

Thanks.

Although the Unix domain socket framework does not use RCU locks, the
entire sockmap process protects access to psock via RCU:
'''
rcu_read_lock();
psock = sk_psock(sk_other);
if (psock) {
 ...
}
rcu_read_unlock(); // `sk_psock_drop` will not execute until the unlock
'''

Therefore, I believe there are no issues with the psock operations here.

Thanks~
