From 9f6cf3abdb1e954db86f963569590444642495ff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Thu, 10 May 2012 22:16:32 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ipv4: Do not use dead fib_info entries. [ Upstream commit dccd9ecc374462e5d6a5b8f8110415a86c2213d8 ] Due to RCU lookups and RCU based release, fib_info objects can be found during lookup which have fi->fib_dead set. We must ignore these entries, otherwise we risk dereferencing the parts of the entry which are being torn down. Reported-by: Yevgen Pronenko Signed-off-by: David S.
