commit 53b0f08042f04813cd1a7473dacd3edfacb28eb3 upstream. Ben Pfaff reported a kernel oops and provided a test program to reproduce it. https://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2010/5/21/6277805 tc_fill_qdisc() should not be called for builtin qdisc, or it dereference a NULL pointer to get device ifindex. Fix is to always use tc_qdisc_dump_ignore() before calling tc_fill_qdisc(). Reported-by: Ben Pfaff <b...@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.duma...@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
