Subject: IB/core: For multicast functions, verify that LIDs are multicast LIDs
From: Michael J. Ruhl <michael.j.ruhl@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 8561eae60ff9417a50fa1fb2b83ae950dc5c1e21 upstream.
The Infiniband spec defines "A multicast address is defined by a
MGID and a MLID" (section 10.5). Currently the MLID value is not
validated.
Add check to verify that the MLID value is in the correct address
range.
Fixes: 0c33aeedb2cf ("[IB] Add checks to multicast attach and detach")
