[PATCH 1/7] netfilter: ipset: fix unaligned atomic access

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

 



From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When using ip_set with counters and comment, traffic causes the kernel
to panic on 32-bit ARM:

Alignment trap: not handling instruction e1b82f9f at [<bf01b0dc>]
Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x221) at 0xea08133c
PC is at ip_set_match_extensions+0xe0/0x224 [ip_set]

The problem occurs when we try to update the 64-bit counters - the
faulting address above is not 64-bit aligned.  The problem occurs
due to the way elements are allocated, for example:

	set->dsize = ip_set_elem_len(set, tb, 0, 0);
	map = ip_set_alloc(sizeof(*map) + elements * set->dsize);

If the element has a requirement for a member to be 64-bit aligned,
and set->dsize is not a multiple of 8, but is a multiple of four,
then every odd numbered elements will be misaligned - and hitting
an atomic64_add() on that element will cause the kernel to panic.

ip_set_elem_len() must return a size that is rounded to the maximum
alignment of any extension field stored in the element.  This change
ensures that is the case.
