[PATCH 3.19 006/123] net_sched: fix struct tc_u_hnode layout in u32

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 24 2015 - 13:04:41 EST


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

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

From: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5778d39d070b4ac5f889928175b7f2d53ae7504e ]

We dynamically allocate divisor+1 entries for ->ht[] in tc_u_hnode:

ht = kzalloc(sizeof(*ht) + divisor*sizeof(void *), GFP_KERNEL);

So ->ht is supposed to be the last field of this struct, however
this is broken, since an rcu head is appended after it.

Fixes: 1ce87720d456 ("net: sched: make cls_u32 lockless")
