From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2015 14:59:11 +0000 (-0700) Subject: packet: read num_members once in packet_rcv_fanout() X-Git-Tag: v3.16.35~1833 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=95e32b4e001e98973d6b2068f91a28ec47e020a1;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git packet: read num_members once in packet_rcv_fanout() commit f98f4514d07871da7a113dd9e3e330743fd70ae4 upstream. We need to tell compiler it must not read f->num_members multiple times. Otherwise testing if num is not zero is flaky, and we could attempt an invalid divide by 0 in fanout_demux_cpu() Note bug was present in packet_rcv_fanout_hash() and packet_rcv_fanout_lb() but final 3.1 had a simple location after commit 95ec3eb417115fb ("packet: Add 'cpu' fanout policy.")
