SubjectOops in 2.6.39 include/net/dst.h: dst_metrics_write_ptr() running l2tp over ipsec
Hi,

I'm starting l2tp over ipsec (racoon, openl2tp) in a little script to
establish a VPN to my company. 2.6.38.x runs fine, but since 2.6.39-rc1
(exactly commit 62fa8a "net: Implement read-only protection and COW'ing
of metrics.") the kernel throws an oops. openl2tp is killed; after a 2nd
start of openl2tp the VPN is established and my PC continues to run
normally. The oops is 100% reproducible.

[ 101.651011] __sk_free: optmem leakage (160 bytes) detected.

The oops happens in dst_metrics_write_ptr()
include/net/dst.h:124: return dst->ops->cow_metrics(dst, p);

dst->ops->cow_metrics is NULL and causes the oops.

This extremely primitive (and most probably wrong) patch fixes the
problem for me:

--- include/net/dst.h 2011-04-24 23:10:15.985686594 +0200
+++ include/net/dst.h 2011-04-24 23:44:43.897686223 +0200
@@ -121,7 +121,7 @@ static inline u32 *dst_metrics_write_ptr
unsigned long p = dst->_metrics;

if (p & DST_METRICS_READ_ONLY)
- return dst->ops->cow_metrics(dst, p);
+ return dst->ops->cow_metrics ?
dst->ops->cow_metrics(dst, p) : NULL;
return __DST_METRICS_PTR(p);
}

Please tell me if you need more information!
Thanks,
Bernhard
