[ Upstream commitd49baa7e12] It's possible to crash the kernel in several different ways by sending messages to the SMC_PNETID generic netlink family that are missing the expected attributes: - Missing SMC_PNETID_NAME => null pointer dereference when comparing names. - Missing SMC_PNETID_ETHNAME => null pointer dereference accessing smc_pnetentry::ndev. - Missing SMC_PNETID_IBNAME => null pointer dereference accessing smc_pnetentry::smcibdev. - Missing SMC_PNETID_IBPORT => out of bounds array access to smc_ib_device::pattr[-1]. Fix it by validating that all expected attributes are present and that SMC_PNETID_IBPORT is nonzero.

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.
