[PATCH 4.5 068/124] mpls: find_outdev: check for err ptr in addition to NULL check

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Apr 17 2016 - 23:28:34 EST


4.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 94a57f1f8a9de90ab4b0f8748361ff8be706c80c ]

find_outdev calls inet{,6}_fib_lookup_dev() or dev_get_by_index() to
find the output device. In case of an error, inet{,6}_fib_lookup_dev()
returns error pointer and dev_get_by_index() returns NULL. But the function
only checks for NULL and thus can end up calling dev_put on an ERR_PTR.
This patch adds an additional check for err ptr after the NULL check.

Before: Trying to add an mpls route with no oif from user, no available
path to 10.1.1.8 and no default route:
$ip -f mpls route add 100 as 200 via inet 10.1.1.8
