Subject: [PATCH v2 net 1/1] rose: check NULL rose_loopback_neigh->loopback
Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2022 02:02:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Yv2BhXInteHP7eJm@electric-eye.fr.zoreil.com> (raw)

From: Bernard Pidoux <f6bvp@free.fr>

Commit 3b3fd068c56e3fbea30090859216a368398e39bf added NULL check for
`rose_loopback_neigh->dev` in rose_loopback_timer() but omitted to
check rose_loopback_neigh->loopback.

It thus prevents *all* rose connect.

The reason is that a special rose_neigh loopback has a NULL device.

/proc/net/rose_neigh illustrates it via rose_neigh_show() function :
[...]
seq_printf(seq, "%05d %-9s %-4s   %3d %3d  %3s     %3s %3lu %3lu",
	   rose_neigh->number,
	   (rose_neigh->loopback) ? "RSLOOP-0" : ax2asc(buf, &rose_neigh->callsign),
	   rose_neigh->dev ? rose_neigh->dev->name : "???",
	   rose_neigh->count,

/proc/net/rose_neigh displays special rose_loopback_neigh->loopback as
callsign RSLOOP-0:

addr  callsign  dev  count use mode restart  t0  tf digipeaters
00001 RSLOOP-0  ???      1   2  DCE     yes   0   0

By checking rose_loopback_neigh->loopback, rose_rx_call_request() is called
even in case rose_loopback_neigh->dev is NULL. This repairs rose connections.

Verification with rose client application FPAC:

 Regression appeared in the v5.9..v5.10 cycle. The fix above also applies as-is
 to stable v5.4, stable v4.19 and stable v4.14.
