Subject: [PATCH net v2] packet: avoid out of bounds read in round robin fanout
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 15:59:34 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434571174-8356-1-git-send-email-willemb@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <55816378.1020602@cogentembedded.com>
From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com>
PACKET_FANOUT_LB computes f->rr_cur such that it is modulo
f->num_members. It returns the old value unconditionally, but
f->num_members may have changed since the last store. Ensure
that the return value is always < num.
When modifying the logic, simplify it further by replacing the loop
with an unconditional atomic increment.
Fixes: dc99f600698d ("packet: Add fanout support.")
