4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ec0acb09313074ba1a4976945791d9c6815f39fb ] Now xt_tgchk_param par in ipt_init_target is a local varibale, par.net is not initialized there. Later when xt_check_target calls target's checkentry in which it may access par.net, it would cause kernel panic. Jaroslav found this panic when running: # ip link add TestIface type dummy # tc qd add dev TestIface ingress handle ffff: # tc filter add dev TestIface parent ffff: u32 match u32 0 0 \ action xt -j CONNMARK --set-mark 4 This patch is to pass net param into ipt_init_target and set par.net with it properly in there. v1->v2: As Wang Cong pointed, I missed ipt_net_id != xt_net_id, so fix it by also passing net_id to __tcf_ipt_init. v2->v3: Missed the fixes tag, so add it.
