Subject: PROBLEM: Null pointer deference in nf_reinject()
To: linux-kernel <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>
I have found a weird bug caused by calls to nf_reinject in the 64Bit
version of 2.6.32 and 2.6.33.
We have a test module that captures all incoming packets on a queue
and then calls nf_reinject on that entry. On calling nf_reinject, the
kernel panics complaining about a null pointer. The arguments being
parsed to nf_reinject are _not_ null. And neither is the skb structure
inside the entry.
The module test code is as follows:
static struct nf_hook_ops* in_hook;
static struct nf_queue_handler* nfqh;
unsigned int hook_func(unsigned int hooknum,
struct sk_buff *pskb,
const struct net_device *in,
const struct net_device *out,
int (*okfn)(struct sk_buff *))
{
return NF_QUEUE;
}
int squeue_add_packet(struct nf_queue_entry *entry, unsigned int queuenum){
//This is where things get nasty --->
if(entry && entry->skb)
nf_reinject(entry, NF_ACCEPT);
return 0;
}
static void register_hooks(){
in_hook = (struct nf_hook_ops*)
kmalloc(sizeof(struct nf_hook_ops), GFP_ATOMIC);
in_hook->hook = hook_func;
in_hook->hooknum = NF_INET_LOCAL_IN;
in_hook->pf = 2;
in_hook->priority = NF_IP_PRI_FIRST;
nfqh = (struct nf_queue_handler*)
kmalloc(sizeof(struct nf_queue_handler),GFP_ATOMIC);
nfqh->name = "queue";
nfqh->outfn = &squeue_add_packet;
nf_register_hook(in_hook);
nf_register_queue_handler(2, nfqh);
}
The resulting panic:

[ 36.322849] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
I have tested this on several different machines, but the particular
vmware image this individual stack trace came from was:
root@debian2:~# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (Debian 2.6.32-5)
(ben@decadent.org.uk) (gcc version 4.3.4 (Debian 4.3.4-6) ) #1 SMP Sun
Jan 10 22:40:40 UTC 2010
The code in question works perfectly in 32Bit linux.
Please consider looking at this, and when required any further
information can be provided
