Linux kernel source tree

Jamal Hadi Salim says: ==================== net: dont intepret cls results when asked to drop It is possible that an error in processing may occur in tcf_classify() which will result in res.classid being some garbage value. Example of such a code path is when the classifier goes into a loop due to bad policy. See patch 1/2 for a sample splat. While the core code reacts correctly and asks the caller to drop the packet (by returning TC_ACT_SHOT) some callers first intepret the res.class as a pointer to memory and end up dropping the packet only after some activity with the pointer. There is likelihood of this resulting in an exploit. So lets fix all the known qdiscs that behave this way. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
