Hi.  While working on some library code for working with qdiscs and
classes I came upon a kernel OOPS.  Originally I came across it with a
2.6.26 kernel, but I can also reproduce it with unmodified v2.6.34 from
kernel.org.

At the end of this mail I'm appending both an example of the OOPS and a
simple test program that reliably reproduces the problem for me when I
invoke it with "lo" as argument.  The program does not need to be run as
root.

After the OOPS, a lot of networking and other system functions stop
working, so it seems to me a serious issue.

The null pointer dereference that causes the OOPS is the dereference of
the return value of qdisc_dev() in tc_fill_qdisc() in
net/sched/sch_api.c line 1163:

    1161	tcm->tcm__pad1 = 0;
    1162	tcm->tcm__pad2 = 0;
    1163	tcm->tcm_ifindex = qdisc_dev(q)->ifindex;
    1164	tcm->tcm_parent = clid;
    1165	tcm->tcm_handle = q->handle;

I am pretty sure about that, because if I add "WARN_ON(!qdisc_dev(q));"
just before line 1163 then that warning triggers.

Thanks,

Ben.
