Merge branch 'net-sched-clamp-quantum-psched_mtu-in-change-paths'
Jamal Hadi Salim says: ==================== net/sched: clamp quantum/psched_mtu in change paths This is a followup to commit 709f34f7c28d ("net/sched: fq: add overflow bounds to quantum and initial quantum"). The quantum_backlog_overflow series and the five siblings that followed clamped the init-path quantum in fq, fq_codel, fq_pie, hhf, sfq. The change() paths were not clamped but it is the same pattern, same writer of q->quantum, same privilege level (CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user namespace). A user can override the init clamp via tc qdisc change, restoring the small-quantum deficit spin that the init clamp was meant to prevent. This series also covers two siblings that were missed entirely by the original series: sch_dualpi2 and sch_pie call psched_mtu() without any clamp at all. With a crafted size table qdisc_pkt_len reaches ~2 GiB, so quantum=1 (or a zero psched_mtu on a headerless device) makes the deficit-refill loop spin ~2^31 times under the qdisc lock (a soft lockup / denial of service). Each patch fixes one qdisc with its own Fixes: tag so they can be backported independently - the commits they fix shift differently in the git tree. Patch 1: fq - clamp TCA_FQ_QUANTUM and TCA_FQ_INITIAL_QUANTUM in change Patch 2: fq_pie - clamp quantum in change path Patch 3: sfq - clamp quantum and reject > 1<<20 in change path Patch 4: hhf - clamp quantum in change and init paths Patch 5: dualpi2 - clamp psched_mtu at all 3 call sites Patch 6: pie - clamp psched_mtu in pie_drop_early Patch 7: drr - clamp quantum in change class Patch 8: ets - clamp quantum in parse and fallback paths Patch 9: selftests - update ETS test 41f5 for clamped quanta Conditions to recreate (applies to all): create the qdisc, then tc qdisc change ... quantum 1 with a STAB size table inflating qdisc_pkt_len. Requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user namespace (unshare -Urn). ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/QDISC-0CFC.v3.20260901204856@mojatatu.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
