[ Upstream commit 0e1d5d9b5c ]
htb_lookup_leaf has a BUG_ON that can trigger with the following:
tc qdisc del dev lo root
tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1: htb default 1
tc class add dev lo parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 64bit
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 1:1 handle 2: netem
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 2:1 handle 3: blackhole
ping -I lo -c1 -W0.001 127.0.0.1
The root cause is the following:
1. htb_dequeue calls htb_dequeue_tree which calls the dequeue handler on
the selected leaf qdisc
2. netem_dequeue calls enqueue on the child qdisc
3. blackhole_enqueue drops the packet and returns a value that is not
just NET_XMIT_SUCCESS
4. Because of this, netem_dequeue calls qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog, and
since qlen is now 0, it calls htb_qlen_notify -> htb_deactivate ->
htb_deactiviate_prios -> htb_remove_class_from_row -> htb_safe_rb_erase
5. As this is the only class in the selected hprio rbtree,
__rb_change_child in __rb_erase_augmented sets the rb_root pointer to
NULL
6. Because blackhole_dequeue returns NULL, netem_dequeue returns NULL,
which causes htb_dequeue_tree to call htb_lookup_leaf with the same
hprio rbtree, and fail the BUG_ON
The function graph for this scenario is shown here:
0) | htb_enqueue() {
0) + 13.635 us | netem_enqueue();
0) 4.719 us | htb_activate_prios();
0) # 2249.199 us | }
0) | htb_dequeue() {
0) 2.355 us | htb_lookup_leaf();
0) | netem_dequeue() {
0) + 11.061 us | blackhole_enqueue();
0) | qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() {
0) | qdisc_lookup_rcu() {
0) 1.873 us | qdisc_match_from_root();
0) 6.292 us | }
0) 1.894 us | htb_search();
0) | htb_qlen_notify() {
0) 2.655 us | htb_deactivate_prios();
0) 6.933 us | }
0) + 25.227 us | }
0) 1.983 us | blackhole_dequeue();
0) + 86.553 us | }
0) # 2932.761 us | qdisc_warn_nonwc();
0) | htb_lookup_leaf() {
0) | BUG_ON();
------------------------------------------
The full original bug report can be seen here [1].
We can fix this just by returning NULL instead of the BUG_ON,
as htb_dequeue_tree returns NULL when htb_lookup_leaf returns
NULL.
