From dca59f4a791960ec73fa15803faa0abe0f92ece2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dima Chumak Date: Mon, 26 Apr 2021 15:16:26 +0300 Subject: net/mlx5e: Fix nullptr in add_vlan_push_action() The result of dev_get_by_index_rcu() is not checked for NULL and then gets dereferenced immediately. Also, the RCU lock must be held by the caller of dev_get_by_index_rcu(), which isn't satisfied by the call stack. Fix by handling nullptr return value when iflink device is not found. Add RCU locking around dev_get_by_index_rcu() to avoid possible adverse effects while iterating over the net_device's hlist. It is safe not to increment reference count of the net_device pointer in case of a successful lookup, because it's already handled by VLAN code during VLAN device registration (see register_vlan_dev and netdev_upper_dev_link).
