tcf_vlan_init() can fail after the idr has been successfully reserved. When this happens, every subsequent attempt to configure vlan rules using the same idr value will systematically fail with -ENOSPC, unless the first attempt was done using the 'replace' keyword. # tc action add action vlan pop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory We have an error talking to the kernel # tc action add action vlan pop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device We have an error talking to the kernel # tc action add action vlan pop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device We have an error talking to the kernel ... Fix this in tcf_vlan_init(), ensuring that tcf_idr_release() is called on the error path when the idr has been reserved, but not yet inserted. Also, don't test 'ovr' in the error path, to avoid a 'replace' failure implicitly become a 'delete' that leaks refcount in act_vlan module: # rmmod act_vlan; modprobe act_vlan # tc action add action vlan push id 5 index 100 # tc action replace action vlan push id 7 index 100 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory We have an error talking to the kernel # tc action list action vlan # # rmmod act_vlan rmmod: ERROR: Module act_vlan is in use Fixes:4c5b9d9642("act_vlan: VLAN action rewrite to use RCU lock/unlock and update") Fixes:65a206c01e("net/sched: Change act_api and act_xxx modules to use IDR") Acked-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
