+Subject: pfifo_tail_enqueue: Drop new packet when sch->limit == 0
+
+From: Quang Le <quanglex97@gmail.com>
+
+commit 647cef20e649c576dff271e018d5d15d998b629d upstream.
+
+Expected behaviour:
+In case we reach scheduler's limit, pfifo_tail_enqueue() will drop a
+packet in scheduler's queue and decrease scheduler's qlen by one.
+Then, pfifo_tail_enqueue() enqueue new packet and increase
+scheduler's qlen by one. Finally, pfifo_tail_enqueue() return
+`NET_XMIT_CN` status code.
+
+Weird behaviour:
+In case we set `sch->limit == 0` and trigger pfifo_tail_enqueue() on a
+scheduler that has no packet, the 'drop a packet' step will do nothing.
+This means the scheduler's qlen still has value equal 0.
+Then, we continue to enqueue new packet and increase scheduler's qlen by
+one. In summary, we can leverage pfifo_tail_enqueue() to increase qlen by
+one and return `NET_XMIT_CN` status code.
+
+The problem is:
+Let's say we have two qdiscs: Qdisc_A and Qdisc_B.
+ - Qdisc_A's type must have '->graft()' function to create parent/child relationship.
+   Let's say Qdisc_A's type is `hfsc`. Enqueue packet to this qdisc will trigger `hfsc_enqueue`.
+ - Qdisc_B's type is pfifo_head_drop. Enqueue packet to this qdisc will trigger `pfifo_tail_enqueue`.
+ - Qdisc_B is configured to have `sch->limit == 0`.
+ - Qdisc_A is configured to route the enqueued's packet to Qdisc_B.
+
+Enqueue packet through Qdisc_A will lead to:
+ - hfsc_enqueue(Qdisc_A) -> pfifo_tail_enqueue(Qdisc_B)
+ - Qdisc_B->q.qlen += 1
+ - pfifo_tail_enqueue() return `NET_XMIT_CN`
+ - hfsc_enqueue() check for `NET_XMIT_SUCCESS` and see `NET_XMIT_CN` => hfsc_enqueue() don't increase qlen of Qdisc_A.
+
+The whole process lead to a situation where Qdisc_A->q.qlen == 0 and Qdisc_B->q.qlen == 1.
+Replace 'hfsc' with other type (for example: 'drr') still lead to the same problem.
+This violate the design where parent's qlen should equal to the sum of its childrens'qlen.
+
+Bug impact: This issue can be used for user->kernel privilege escalation when it is reachable.
