commit a198a2362ac6bf8a5a7053f8b87db3f43e5cced9 Author: Sven Eckelmann sven@narfation.org Date: Fri Mar 11 16:44:06 2016 +0100

batman-adv: Fix reference counting of hardif_neigh_node object for neigh_node

The batadv_neigh_node was specific to a batadv_hardif_neigh_node and held an implicit reference to it. But this reference was never stored in form of a pointer in the batadv_neigh_node itself. Instead batadv_neigh_node_release depends on a consistent state of hard_iface->neigh_list and that batadv_hardif_neigh_get always returns the batadv_hardif_neigh_node object which it has a reference for. But batadv_hardif_neigh_get cannot guarantee that because it is working only with rcu_read_lock on this list. It can therefore happen that a neigh_addr is in this list twice or that batadv_hardif_neigh_get cannot find the batadv_hardif_neigh_node for an neigh_addr due to some other list operations taking place at the same time.

Instead add a batadv_hardif_neigh_node pointer directly in batadv_neigh_node which will be used for the reference counter decremented on release of batadv_neigh_node.
