4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christoph Paasch <cpaasch@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 9410d386d0a829ace9558336263086c2fbbe8aed ] __qdisc_drop_all() accesses skb->prev to get to the tail of the segment-list. With commit 68d2f84a1368 ("net: gro: properly remove skb from list") the skb-list handling has been changed to set skb->next to NULL and set the list-poison on skb->prev. With that change, __qdisc_drop_all() will panic when it tries to dereference skb->prev. Since commit 992cba7e276d ("net: Add and use skb_list_del_init().") __list_del_entry is used, leaving skb->prev unchanged (thus, pointing to the list-head if it's the first skb of the list). This will make __qdisc_drop_all modify the next-pointer of the list-head and result in a panic later on: [ 34.501053] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI [ 34.501968] CPU: 2 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/2 Not tainted 4.20.0-rc2.mptcp #108 [ 34.502887] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 0.5.1 01/01/2011 [ 34.504074] RIP: 0010:dev_gro_receive+0x343/0x1f90 [ 34.504751] Code: e0 48 c1 e8 03 42 80 3c 30 00 0f 85 4a 1c 00 00 4d 8b 24 24 4c 39 65 d0 0f 84 0a 04 00 00 49 8d 7c 24 38 48 89 f8 48 c1 e8 03 <42> 0f b6 04 30 84 c0 74 08 3c 04 [ 34.507060] RSP: 0018:ffff8883af507930 EFLAGS: 00010202 [ 34.507761] RAX: 0000000000000007 RBX: ffff8883970b2c80 RCX: 1ffff11072e165a6 [ 34.508640] RDX: 1ffff11075867008 RSI: ffff8883ac338040 RDI: 0000000000000038 [ 34.509493] RBP: ffff8883af5079d0 R08: ffff8883970b2d40 R09: 0000000000000062 [ 34.510346] R10: 0000000000000034 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 34.511215] R13: 0000000000000000 R14: dffffc0000000000 R15: ffff8883ac338008 [ 34.512082] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8883af500000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 34.513036] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 34.513741] CR2: 000055ccc3e9d020 CR3: 00000003abf32000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 [ 34.514593] Call Trace: [ 34.514893] <IRQ> [ 34.515157] napi_gro_receive+0x93/0x150 [ 34.515632] receive_buf+0x893/0x3700 [ 34.516094] ? __netif_receive_skb+0x1f/0x1a0 [ 34.516629] ? virtnet_probe+0x1b40/0x1b40 [ 34.517153] ? __stable_node_chain+0x4d0/0x850 [ 34.517684] ? kfree+0x9a/0x180 [ 34.518067] ? __kasan_slab_free+0x171/0x190 [ 34.518582] ? detach_buf+0x1df/0x650 [ 34.519061] ? lapic_next_event+0x5a/0x90 [ 34.519539] ? virtqueue_get_buf_ctx+0x280/0x7f0 [ 34.520093] virtnet_poll+0x2df/0xd60 [ 34.520533] ? receive_buf+0x3700/0x3700 [ 34.521027] ? qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns+0xd5/0x140 [ 34.521631] ? htb_dequeue+0x1817/0x25f0 [ 34.522107] ? sch_direct_xmit+0x142/0xf30 [ 34.522595] ? virtqueue_napi_schedule+0x26/0x30 [ 34.523155] net_rx_action+0x2f6/0xc50 [ 34.523601] ? napi_complete_done+0x2f0/0x2f0 [ 34.524126] ? kasan_check_read+0x11/0x20 [ 34.524608] ? _raw_spin_lock+0x7d/0xd0 [ 34.525070] ? _raw_spin_lock_bh+0xd0/0xd0 [ 34.525563] ? kvm_guest_apic_eoi_write+0x6b/0x80 [ 34.526130] ? apic_ack_irq+0x9e/0xe0 [ 34.526567] __do_softirq+0x188/0x4b5 [ 34.527015] irq_exit+0x151/0x180 [ 34.527417] do_IRQ+0xdb/0x150 [ 34.527783] common_interrupt+0xf/0xf [ 34.528223] </IRQ> This patch makes sure that skb->prev is set to NULL when entering netem_enqueue.
