While one cpu is working on looking up the right socket from ehash
table, another cpu is done deleting the request socket and is about
to add (or is adding) the big socket from the table. It means that
we could miss both of them, even though it has little chance.
Let me draw a call trace map of the server side.
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
tcp_v4_rcv() syn_recv_sock()
inet_ehash_insert()
-> sk_nulls_del_node_init_rcu(osk)
__inet_lookup_established()
-> __sk_nulls_add_node_rcu(sk, list)
Notice that the CPU 0 is receiving the data after the final ack
during 3-way shakehands and CPU 1 is still handling the final ack.
Why could this be a real problem?
This case is happening only when the final ack and the first data
receiving by different CPUs. Then the server receiving data with
ACK flag tries to search one proper established socket from ehash
table, but apparently it fails as my map shows above. After that,
the server fetches a listener socket and then sends a RST because
it finds a ACK flag in the skb (data), which obeys RST definition
in RFC 793.
Besides, Eric pointed out there's one more race condition where it
handles tw socket hashdance. Only by adding to the tail of the list
before deleting the old one can we avoid the race if the reader has
already begun the bucket traversal and it would possibly miss the head.
Many thanks to Eric for great help from beginning to end.

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.
