[PATCH 3.15 02/26] xfrm: Fix refcount imbalance in xfrm_lookup

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

 



3.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b7eea4545ea775df957460f58eb56085a8892856 ]

xfrm_lookup must return a dst_entry with a refcount for the caller.
Git commit 1a1ccc96abb ("xfrm: Remove caching of xfrm_policy_sk_bundles")
removed this refcount for the socket policy case accidentally.
This patch restores it and sets DST_NOCACHE flag to make sure
that the dst_entry is freed when the refcount becomes null.

Fixes: 1a1ccc96abb ("xfrm: Remove caching of xfrm_policy_sk_bundles")
