Eric Dumazet d1bc80da75 net_sched: sch_sfq: fix a potential crash on gso_skb handling
[ Upstream commit 82ffbe7776 ]

SFQ has an assumption of always being able to queue at least one packet.

However, after the blamed commit, sch->q.len can be inflated by packets
in sch->gso_skb, and an enqueue() on an empty SFQ qdisc can be followed
by an immediate drop.

Fix sfq_drop() to properly clear q->tail in this situation.

Tested:

ip netns add lb
ip link add dev to-lb type veth peer name in-lb netns lb
ethtool -K to-lb tso off                 # force qdisc to requeue gso_skb
ip netns exec lb ethtool -K in-lb gro on # enable NAPI
ip link set dev to-lb up
ip -netns lb link set dev in-lb up
ip addr add dev to-lb 192.168.20.1/24
ip -netns lb addr add dev in-lb 192.168.20.2/24
tc qdisc replace dev to-lb root sfq limit 100

ip netns exec lb netserver

netperf -H 192.168.20.2 -l 100 &
netperf -H 192.168.20.2 -l 100 &
netperf -H 192.168.20.2 -l 100 &
netperf -H 192.168.20.2 -l 100 &

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
