[PATCH 5.3 063/197] net_sched: fix backward compatibility for TCA_ACT_KIND

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Oct 27 2019 - 17:19:58 EST


From: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4b793feccae3b06764268377a4030eb774ed924e ]

For TCA_ACT_KIND, we have to keep the backward compatibility too,
and rely on nla_strlcpy() to check and terminate the string with
a NUL.

Note for TC actions, nla_strcmp() is already used to compare kind
strings, so we don't need to fix other places.

Fixes: 199ce850ce11 ("net_sched: add policy validation for action attributes")
