This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/sched: act_sample: fix divide by zero in the traffic path to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-sched-act_sample-fix-divide-by-zero-in-the-traffic-path.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Apr 15 07:47:06 CEST 2019 From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 4 Apr 2019 12:31:35 +0200 Subject: net/sched: act_sample: fix divide by zero in the traffic path From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fae2708174ae95d98d19f194e03d6e8f688ae195 ] the control path of 'sample' action does not validate the value of 'rate' provided by the user, but then it uses it as divisor in the traffic path. Validate it in tcf_sample_init(), and return -EINVAL with a proper extack message in case that value is zero, to fix a splat with the script below: # tc f a dev test0 egress matchall action sample rate 0 group 1 index 2 # tc -s a s action sample total acts 1 action order 0: sample rate 1/0 group 1 pipe index 2 ref 1 bind 1 installed 19 sec used 19 sec Action statistics: Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 # ping 192.0.2.1 -I test0 -c1 -q divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 1 PID: 6192 Comm: ping Not tainted 5.1.0-rc2.diag2+ #591 Hardware name: Red Hat KVM, BIOS 0.5.1 01/01/2011 RIP: 0010:tcf_sample_act+0x9e/0x1e0 [act_sample] Code: 6a f1 85 c0 74 0d 80 3d 83 1a 00 00 00 0f 84 9c 00 00 00 4d 85 e4 0f 84 85 00 00 00 e8 9b d7 9c f1 44 8b 8b e0 00 00 00 31 d2 <41> f7 f1 85 d2 75 70 f6 85 83 00 00 00 10 48 8b 45 10 8b 88 08 01 RSP: 0018:ffffae320190ba30 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 00000000b0677d21 RBX: ffff8af1ed9ec000 RCX: 0000000059a9fe49 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 000000000c7e33b7 RDI: ffff8af23daa0af0 RBP: ffff8af1ee11b200 R08: 0000000074fcaf7e R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000050 R11: ffffffffb3088680 R12: ffff8af232307f80 R13: 0000000000000003 R14: ffff8af1ed9ec000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007fe9c6d2f740(0000) GS:ffff8af23da80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007fff6772f000 CR3: 00000000746a2004 CR4: 00000000001606e0 Call Trace: tcf_action_exec+0x7c/0x1c0 tcf_classify+0x57/0x160 __dev_queue_xmit+0x3dc/0xd10 ip_finish_output2+0x257/0x6d0 ip_output+0x75/0x280 ip_send_skb+0x15/0x40 raw_sendmsg+0xae3/0x1410 sock_sendmsg+0x36/0x40 __sys_sendto+0x10e/0x140 __x64_sys_sendto+0x24/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x60/0x210 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe [...] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt Add a TDC selftest to document that 'rate' is now being validated.
