Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/sched: Fix actions list corruption when adding offloaded tc flows
Date: Tue, 24 Oct 2017 08:58:02 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1508824682-5088-1-git-send-email-ogerlitz@mellanox.com> (raw)

Prior to commit b3f55bdda8df, the networking core doesn't wire an in-place
actions list the when the low level driver is called to offload the flow,
but all low level drivers do that (call tcf_exts_to_list()) in their
offloading "add" logic.

Now, the in-place list is set in the core which goes over the list in a loop,
but also by the hw driver when their offloading code is invoked indirectly:

	cls_xxx add flow -> tc_setup_cb_call -> tc_exts_setup_cb_egdev_call -> hw driver

which messes up the core list instance upon driver return. Fix that by avoiding
in-place list on the net core code that deals with adding flows.

Fixes: b3f55bdda8df ('net: sched: introduce per-egress action device callbacks')
