mainlining shenanigans
assigning a dummy value of 'clock_id' to avoid cancellation of the cycle timer before its initialization was a temporary solution, and we still need to handle the case where act_gate timer parameters are changed by commands like the following one: # tc action replace action gate <parameters> the fix consists in the following items: 1) remove the workaround assignment of 'clock_id', and init the list of entries before the first error path after IDR atomic check/allocation 2) validate 'clock_id' earlier: there is no need to do IDR atomic check/allocation if we know that 'clock_id' is a bad value 3) use a dedicated function, 'gate_setup_timer()', to ensure that the timer is cancelled and re-initialized on action overwrite, and also ensure we initialize the timer in the error path of tcf_gate_init() v3: improve comment in the error path of tcf_gate_init() (thanks to Vladimir Oltean) v2: avoid 'goto' in gate_setup_timer (thanks to Cong Wang) CC: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Fixes: |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
