[PATCH net] net/sched: ets: fix divide by zero in the offload path

From: Davide Caratti <hidden>
Date: 2026-02-24 20:30:29

Offloading ETS requires computing each class' WRR weight: this is done by
averaging over the sums of quanta as 'q_sum' and 'q_psum'. Using unsigned
int, the same integer size as the individual DRR quanta, can overflow and
even cause division by zero, like it happened in the following splat:

hi Jamal, thanks for reviewing!

the test is a single line :

# tc qdisc add dev eth0 root ets bands 3 quanta 4294967294 1 1

but to see p_sum = 0 as divisor, eth0 must support offload for TC_SETUP_QDISC_ETS.
I see that netdevsim only supports TAPRIO offload, and I plan to follow-up on
net-next adding support for ETS offload on netdevsim (maybe also other qdiscs
deserve this, just to let syzkaller explore some  "new" areas).

This way, I can write a TDC test-case similar to those we have for taprio
or cake-mq.

If you have to resend then add it to the commit - otherwise a tdc test
should cover it fine (when you get to the netdevsim change perhaps)
