[PATCH net 1/1] net_sched: sch_fq: Fix out of range band computation

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>
Date: 2023-12-13 16:57:58

It is possible to compute a band of 3. Doing so will overrun array
q->band_pkt_count[0-2] boundaries.

Fixes: 29f834aa326e ("net_sched: sch_fq: add 3 bands and WRR scheduling")
Reported-by: Coverity Scan <redacted>

Are you sure this is needed ?

fq_load_priomap() makes sure this can not happen...

According to coverity static analysis.
fq_load_priomap() makes sure this can not happen...
True. Sounds like a false positive because coverity sees the masking
with &0x3 and assumes we could get a result of 3.

Yeah, I am pretty sure this patch is incorrect, we need to mask to get
only two bits.

The check in fq_load_priomap() is what makes it moot. Masking with
b'11 could result in b'11. Definitely the modulo will guarantee
whatever results can only be in the range 0..2. But it is not needed.

cheers,

Modulo would be incorrect, since it would use high order bits.

(0x22 % 3) is different than (0x22 & 3)

Had you written:

return ((prio2band[prio / 4] >> (2 * (prio & 0x3))) & 0x3) % 3)

Then yes, the last % 3 would be "not needed"
