From 1c87e79a002f6a159396138cd3f3ab554a2a8887 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xin Long Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2019 14:45:48 +0800 Subject: ipv6: make ip6_create_rt_rcu return ip6_null_entry instead of NULL Jianlin reported a crash: [ 381.484332] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000068 [ 381.619802] RIP: 0010:fib6_rule_lookup+0xa3/0x160 [ 382.009615] Call Trace: [ 382.020762] [ 382.030174] ip6_route_redirect.isra.52+0xc9/0xf0 [ 382.050984] ip6_redirect+0xb6/0xf0 [ 382.066731] icmpv6_notify+0xca/0x190 [ 382.083185] ndisc_redirect_rcv+0x10f/0x160 [ 382.102569] ndisc_rcv+0xfb/0x100 [ 382.117725] icmpv6_rcv+0x3f2/0x520 [ 382.133637] ip6_input_finish+0xbf/0x460 [ 382.151634] ip6_input+0x3b/0xb0 [ 382.166097] ipv6_rcv+0x378/0x4e0 It was caused by the lookup function __ip6_route_redirect() returns NULL in fib6_rule_lookup() when ip6_create_rt_rcu() returns NULL. So we fix it by simply making ip6_create_rt_rcu() return ip6_null_entry instead of NULL. v1->v2: - move down 'fallback:' to make it more readable.
