[PATCH 4.7 143/143] SUNRPC: Fix infinite looping in rpc_clnt_iterate_for_each_xprt

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 05 2016 - 12:58:18 EST


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

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

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit bdc54d8e3cb4a41dddcabfd86d9eb3aa5f622b75 upstream.

If there were less than 2 entries in the multipath list, then
xprt_iter_next_entry_multiple() would never advance beyond the
first entry, which is correct for round robin behaviour, but not
for the list iteration.

The end result would be infinite looping in rpc_clnt_iterate_for_each_xprt()
as we would never see the xprt == NULL condition fulfilled.
