[PATCH 3.16 145/366] l2tp: hold reference on tunnels in netlink dumps

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Oct 14 2018 - 11:45:40 EST


3.16.60-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5846c131c39b6d0add36ec19dc8650700690f930 upstream.

l2tp_tunnel_find_nth() is unsafe: no reference is held on the returned
tunnel, therefore it can be freed whenever the caller uses it.
This patch defines l2tp_tunnel_get_nth() which works similarly, but
also takes a reference on the returned tunnel. The caller then has to
drop it after it stops using the tunnel.

Convert netlink dumps to make them safe against concurrent tunnel
deletion.
