[PKT_SCHED]: Kill pkt_act.h inlining.

2006-09-22T21:55:10+00:00

This was simply making templates of functions and mostly causing a lot
of code duplication in the classifier action modules.

We solve this more cleanly by having a common "struct tcf_common" that
hash worker functions contained once in act_api.c can work with.

Callers work with real action objects that have the common struct
plus their module specific struct members.  You go from a common
object to the higher level one using a "to_foo()" macro which makes
use of container_of() to do the dirty work.

This also kills off act_generic.h which was only used by act_simple.c
and keeping it around was more work than the it's value.

[PKT_SCHED]: Fix error handling while dumping actions

2006-07-06T03:47:28+00:00

"return -err" and blindly inheriting the error code in the netlink
failure exception handler causes errors codes to be returned as
positive value therefore making them being ignored by the caller.

May lead to sending out incomplete netlink messages.

[PKT_SCHED]: Fix illegal memory dereferences when dumping actions

2006-07-06T03:45:06+00:00

The TCA_ACT_KIND attribute is used without checking its
availability when dumping actions therefore leading to a
value of 0x4 being dereferenced.

The use of strcmp() in tc_lookup_action_n() isn't safe
when fed with string from an attribute without enforcing
proper NUL termination.

Both bugs can be triggered with malformed netlink message
and don't require any privileges.

[NET_SCHED]: act_api: fix skb leak in error path

2006-03-13T04:39:36+00:00

The skb is allocated by the function, so it needs to be freed instead
of trimmed on overrun.
