Antes de que se llame al temporizador, expire_timers() llama a detach_timer(timer, true) para borrar timer->entry.pprev y lo marca como no pendiente. Si reqsk_queue_unlink() comprueba timer_pending() justo despu\u00e9s de que expire_timers() llame a detach_timer(), TCP no detectar\u00e1 del_timer_sync(); el temporizador reqsk seguir\u00e1 funcionando y enviar\u00e1 varios SYN+ACK hasta que expire.

El escenario ser\u00eda 1. inet_csk_complete_hashdance() llama a inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(), pero se omite del_timer_sync() 2. se ejecuta el temporizador reqsk y se programa nuevamente 3. se acepta req->sk y reqsk_put() decrementa rsk_refcnt, pero el temporizador reqsk a\u00fan tiene otro, e inet_csk_accept() no borra req->sk para sockets que no sean TFO 4. se cierra sk 5. se ejecuta nuevamente el temporizador reqsk y BPF toca req->sk No usemos timer_pending() pasando el contexto del llamador a __inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(). Tenga en cuenta que el temporizador reqsk est\u00e1 fijado, por lo que el problema no ocurre en la mayor\u00eda de los casos de uso.
