The child calls qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog(), which, now that the child\n is empty, invokes hfsc_qlen_notify() -> update_vf(cl, 0, 0) and turns\n the class passive (cl_nactive is decremented up the hierarchy).\n\n2. hfsc_dequeue() then calls update_vf(cl, qdisc_pkt_len(skb), cur_time)\n to charge the dequeued bytes.\n\nOn the second call the class is already passive, but its child qdisc is\nstill empty, so update_vf() arms go_passive again:\n\n if (cl->qdisc->q.qlen == 0 && cl->cl_flags & HFSC_FSC)\n go_passive = 1;\n\nThe leaf is then skipped by the cl_nactive == 0 check inside the loop,\nwhich does not clear go_passive, so the stale go_passive propagates to the\nparent and decrements its cl_nactive a second time. A parent that still\nhas other active children is driven to cl_nactive == 0 and removed from\nthe vttree, even though those siblings are still backlogged. They are\nnever dequeued again and the qdisc stalls.\n\nFix this by only arming go_passive when the class is actually active, so an\nalready-passive class no longer triggers a second passive transition. The\nbyte accounting (cl->cl_total += len) still runs for every ancestor, so\ndequeued bytes continue to be counted exactly once." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux",
