mini_Qdisc_pair::p_miniq is a double pointer to mini_Qdisc, initialized
in ingress_init() to point to net_device::miniq_ingress. ingress Qdiscs
access this per-net_device pointer in mini_qdisc_pair_swap(). Similar
for clsact Qdiscs and miniq_egress.
Unfortunately, after introducing RTNL-unlocked RTM_{NEW,DEL,GET}TFILTER
requests (thanks Hillf Danton for the hint), when replacing ingress or
clsact Qdiscs, for example, the old Qdisc ("@old") could access the same
miniq_{in,e}gress pointer(s) concurrently with the new Qdisc ("@new"),
causing race conditions [1] including a use-after-free bug in
mini_qdisc_pair_swap() reported by syzbot:

@old and @new should not affect each other. In other words, @old should
never modify miniq_{in,e}gress after @new, and @new should not update
@old's RCU state.
Fixing without changing sch_api.c turned out to be difficult (please
refer to Closes: for discussions). Instead, make sure @new's first call
always happen after @old's last call (in {ingress,clsact}_destroy()) has
finished:
In qdisc_graft(), return -EBUSY if @old has any ongoing filter requests,
and call qdisc_destroy() for @old before grafting @new.
Introduce qdisc_refcount_dec_if_one() as the counterpart of
qdisc_refcount_inc_nz() used for filter requests. Introduce a
non-static version of qdisc_destroy() that does a TCQ_F_BUILTIN check,
just like qdisc_put() etc.
Depends on patch "net/sched: Refactor qdisc_graft() for ingress and
clsact Qdiscs".

TC_H_ROOT (no longer possible after commit

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.
