I /think/ it is the correct fix, in that it certainly fixes the oops,
and it's relatively low overhead. I ran the torture test for 24 hours
without a problem.
My only concern is that eventually my torture test died as the
machine (512MB VM) had run out of memory - this was after about 30
hours. Save for having no free memory, the box is happy.
It looks like there is something (possibly something
entirely different) leaking memory. It does not appear to be
conntrack. Whatever, a slow memory leak causing death on a tiny
VM over 5,000 iterations is better than an oops after 5. Memory
stats below. I will leave the vm up in case anyone wants other
stats.
On the suggestion to move the check for ->nfnl into
nfnetlink_has_listeners(), the problem with that is that
if item->report is non-NULL, nfnetlink_has_listeners()
will not be called, and the early return will not be made.
This will merely delay the oops until elsewhere (nfnetlink_send
for example). The check is currently as follows:
if (!item->report && !nfnetlink_has_listeners(net, group))
return 0;
I am a very long way from being a netlink expert, but I am not
entirely sure what the point of progressing further is if there
are no listeners if item->report is non-null. Certainly there is
no point in progressing if net->nfnl NULL (as this will oops
before item->report is meaningfully used - it's just passed
as a parametner to nfnetlink_send which will crash). It's
almost as if that test should be || not &&.
Perhaps we should check net->nfnl in both places.
I think there might be similar issues with ctnetlink_expect_event.
