Subject: [PATCH net v2 08/10] net/sched: netem: null-terminate tfifo linear queue tail
Date: Sat, 14 Mar 2026 17:14:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260315001649.23931-9-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260315001649.23931-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
When tfifo_enqueue() appends a packet to the linear queue tail,
nskb->next is never set to NULL. The list terminates correctly
only by accident if the skb arrived with next already NULL.
Explicitly null-terminate the tail to prevent list corruption.
Fixes: d66280b12bd7 ("net: netem: use a list in addition to rbtree")
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
