Subject: [PATCH 19/22] cls_matchall: avoid panic when receiving a packet before filter set

From: Matteo Croce <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 2 May 2019 10:51:05 +0200

[ Upstream commit 25426043ec9e22b90c789407c28e40f32a9d1985 ]

When a matchall classifier is added, there is a small time interval in
which tp->root is NULL. If we receive a packet in this small time slice
a NULL pointer dereference will happen, leading to a kernel panic:

    # tc qdisc replace dev eth0 ingress
    # tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: matchall action gact drop
    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000034
    Mem abort info:
      ESR = 0x96000005
      Exception class = DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits
      SET = 0, FnV = 0
      EA = 0, S1PTW = 0

Fix this by adding a NULL check in mall_classify().
