Hi, I was unable to reproduce the issues with the steps given - many packages are missing, etc. - I am still trying though - however, the stack trace of this issue shows it is a NULL pointer de-reference (it looks like in cn_filter() function) - and I found a potential suspect where a check for NULL pointer was missing. So I’ve sent out the patch fix for this - is it possible for someone to please test with this fix and let me know if the issue is resolved? The fix looks like:
diff --git a/drivers/connector/cn_proc.c b/drivers/connector/cn_proc.c index 05d562e9c8b1..a8e55569e4f5 100644 --- a/drivers/connector/cn_proc.c +++ b/drivers/connector/cn_proc.c @@ -54,7 +54,7 @@ static int cn_filter(struct sock *dsk, struct sk_buff *skb, void *data) enum proc_cn_mcast_op mc_op; uintptr_t val;
