Subject: [PATCH net/next] bridge:Add rcu read lock when delete br port
Date: Mon, 4 Aug 2014 11:37:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1407123476-9720-1-git-send-email-lichunhe@huawei.com> (raw)

From: Chunhe Li <lichunhe@huawei.com>

In the br_hanle_frame function has a bug, when the bridge receive packets
which go througth the br_handle_frame, get the net_bridge_port pointer "p",
but don't check NULL pointer to use it. If somebody delete the bridge port
at the same time, will call a NULL pointer, trigger kernel panic. I see the
del_nbp comments, call del_nbp should via RCU, but the caller don't do this.

following steps will make bug happened
1.start vm and add the vm interface to a bridge br0,for example,
brctl addbr br0 tap0

2.configuer vm interface and br0 same ip subnet, vm ping br0.

3.add and delete the vm interface port for endless loop.
