[PATCH 4.20 017/117] ip6_gre: fix tunnel list corruption for x-netns

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 29 2019 - 07:10:41 EST


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

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

From: Olivier Matz <olivier.matz@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ab5098fa25b91cb6fe0a0676f17abb64f2bbf024 ]

In changelink ops, the ip6gre_net pointer is retrieved from
dev_net(dev), which is wrong in case of x-netns. Thus, the tunnel is not
unlinked from its current list and is relinked into another net
namespace. This corrupts the tunnel lists and can later trigger a kernel
oops.

Fix this by retrieving the netns from device private area.
