Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/4] batman-adv: Request iflink once in batadv_get_real_netdevice
Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2022 00:52:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220227235257.1324636-2-sven@narfation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220227235257.1324636-1-sven@narfation.org>
There is no need to call dev_get_iflink multiple times for the same
net_device in batadv_get_real_netdevice. And since some of the
ndo_get_iflink callbacks are dynamic (for example via RCUs like in
vxcan_get_iflink), it could easily happen that the returned values are not
stable. The pre-checks before __dev_get_by_index are then of course bogus.
Fixes: 2b45bb6c3aad ("batman-adv: additional checks for virtual interfaces on top of WiFi")
