[ Upstream commit9bd0160d12] afs_find_server tries to find a server that has an address that matches the transport address of an rxrpc peer. The code assumes that the transport address is always ipv6, with ipv4 represented as ipv4 mapped addresses, but that's not the case. If the transport family is AF_INET, srx->transport.sin6.sin6_addr.s6_addr32[] will be beyond the actual ipv4 address and will always be 0, and all ipv4 addresses will be seen as matching. As a result, the first ipv4 address seen on any server will be considered a match, and the server returned may be the wrong one. One of the consequences is that callbacks received over ipv4 will only be correctly applied for the server that happens to have the first ipv4 address on the fs_addresses4 list. Callbacks over ipv4 from all other servers are dropped, causing the client to serve stale data. This is fixed by looking at the transport family, and comparing ipv4 addresses based on a sockaddr_in structure rather than a sockaddr_in6.

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.
