Subject: [PATCH 2.6.25] [ATM] Oops reading net/atm/arp
Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2008 14:28:53 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080110112853.GA16173@iris.sw.ru> (raw)
cat /proc/net/atm/arp causes the NULL pointer dereference in the
get_proc_net+0xc/0x3a. This happens as proc_get_net believes that the
parent proc dir entry contains struct net.
Fix this assumption for "net/atm" case.
The problem is introduced by the commit c0097b07abf5f92ab135d024dd41bd2aada1512f
from Eric W. Biederman/Daniel Lezcano.
