Subject: [PATCH net-next] netem: fix possible NULL deref in netem_dequeue()
Date: Wed, 03 Jul 2013 14:04:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1372885454.4979.73.camel@edumazet-glaptop> (raw)

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

commit aec0a40a6f7884 ("netem: use rb tree to implement the time queue")
added a regression if a child qdisc is attached to netem, as we perform
a NULL dereference.

Fix this by adding a temporary variable to cache
netem_skb_cb(skb)->time_to_send.
