Message-ID: <5003CC41.9080204@cn.fujitsu.com> Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2012 16:09:37 +0800 From: Li Wei <lw@...fujitsu.com> To: "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> CC: netdev <netdev@...r.kernel.org>, Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@...tta.com> Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: fix incorrect route 'expires' value passed to userspace. When userspace use RTM_GETROUTE to dump route table, with a already expired route entry, we always got an 'expires' value(2147157) calculated base on INT_MAX. The reason of this problem is in the following satement: rt->dst.expires - jiffies < INT_MAX gcc promoted the type of both sides of '<' to unsigned long, thus a small negative value would be considered greater than INT_MAX. This patch fix this by cast the result of subtraction to an 'int' which I think is large enough for the expires. Also we should do some fix in rtnl_put_cacheinfo() which use jiffies_to_clock_t(which take an unsigned log as parameter) to convert jiffies to clock_t to handle the negative expires. --- net/core/rtnetlink.c | 3 ++- net/ipv6/route.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/net/core/rtnetlink.c b/net/core/rtnetlink.c index 21318d1..f92f3d8 100644 --- a/net/core/rtnetlink.c +++ b/net/core/rtnetlink.c @@ -641,7 +641,8 @@ int rtnl_put_cacheinfo(struct sk_buff *skb, struct dst_entry *dst, u32 id, }; if (expires) - ci.rta_expires = jiffies_to_clock_t(expires); + ci.rta_expires = expires > 0 ? jiffies_to_clock_t(expires) + : -jiffies_to_clock_t(-expires); return nla_put(skb, RTA_CACHEINFO, sizeof(ci), &ci); } diff --git a/net/ipv6/route.c b/net/ipv6/route.c index becb048..a7fec9d 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/route.c +++ b/net/ipv6/route.c @@ -2516,7 +2516,7 @@ static int rt6_fill_node(struct net *net, goto nla_put_failure; if (!(rt->rt6i_flags & RTF_EXPIRES)) expires = 0; - else if (rt->dst.expires - jiffies < INT_MAX) + else if ((int)(rt->dst.expires - jiffies) < INT_MAX) expires = rt->dst.expires - jiffies; else expires = INT_MAX; -- 1.7.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
