Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/2] inet: frags: fix ip6frag_low_thresh boundary
Date: Wed,  4 Apr 2018 08:35:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180404153510.213392-1-edumazet@google.com> (raw)

Giving an integer to proc_doulongvec_minmax() is dangerous on 64bit arches,
since linker might place next to it a non zero value preventing a change
to ip6frag_low_thresh.

ip6frag_low_thresh is not used anymore in the kernel, but we do not
want to prematuraly break user scripts wanting to change it.

Since specifying a minimal value of 0 for proc_doulongvec_minmax()
is moot, let's remove these zero values in all defrag units.

Fixes: 6e00f7dd5e4e ("ipv6: frags: fix /proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_low_thresh")
