[PATCH] net: sched: Fix potential infinite loop

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The for-loop iterates with a u16 loop counter idx and compares this
with the loop upper limit of q->flows_cnt that is a u32 type.
There is a potential infinite loop if q->flows_cnt is larger than
the u8 loop counter. Fix this by making the loop counter the same
type as q->flows_cnt.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Infinite loop")
Fixes: ec97ecf1ebe4 ("net: sched: add Flow Queue PIE packet scheduler")
