net: Fix corruption in /proc/*/net/dev_mcast
I just hit this during my testing. Isn't there another bug lurking? BUG kmalloc-8: Redzone overwritten INFO: 0xc0000000de9dec48-0xc0000000de9dec4b. First byte 0x0 instead of 0xcc INFO: Allocated in .__seq_open_private+0x30/0xa0 age=0 cpu=5 pid=3896 .__kmalloc+0x1e0/0x2d0 .__seq_open_private+0x30/0xa0 .seq_open_net+0x60/0xe0 .dev_mc_seq_open+0x4c/0x70 .proc_reg_open+0xd8/0x260 .__dentry_open.clone.11+0x2b8/0x400 .do_last+0xf4/0x950 .path_openat+0xf8/0x480 .do_filp_open+0x48/0xc0 .do_sys_open+0x140/0x250 syscall_exit+0x0/0x40 dev_mc_seq_ops uses dev_seq_start/next/stop but only allocates sizeof(struct seq_net_private) of private data, whereas it expects sizeof(struct dev_iter_state): struct dev_iter_state { struct seq_net_private p; unsigned int pos; /* bucket << BUCKET_SPACE + offset */ }; Create dev_seq_open_ops and use it so we don't have to expose struct dev_iter_state.
