Subject: [PATCH net] ipv6: rt6_check should return NULL if 'from' is NULL
Date: Wed, 17 Jul 2019 15:08:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190717220843.974-1-dsahern@kernel.org> (raw)
From: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com>
Paul reported that l2tp sessions were broken after the commit referenced
in the Fixes tag. Prior to this commit rt6_check returned NULL if the
rt6_info 'from' was NULL - ie., the dst_entry was disconnected from a FIB
entry. Restore that behavior.
Fixes: 93531c674315 ("net/ipv6: separate handling of FIB entries from dst based routes")
