From: Vlad Buslov vladbu@nvidia.com Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2021 18:36:03 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net: sched: fix action overwrite reference counting
Action init code increments reference counter when it changes an action. This is the desired behavior for cls API which needs to obtain action reference for every classifier that points to action. However, act API just needs to change the action and releases the reference before returning. This sequence breaks when the requested action doesn't exist, which causes act API init code to create new action with specified index, but action is still released before returning and is deleted (unless it was referenced concurrently by cls API).
Reproduction:
$ sudo tc actions ls action gact $ sudo tc actions change action gact drop index 1 $ sudo tc actions ls action gact
Extend tcf_action_init() to accept 'init_res' array and initialize it with action->ops->init() result. In tcf_action_add() remove pointers to created actions from actions array before passing it to tcf_action_put_many().
