[PATCH v2 net] net/802/mrp: fix vector attribute parsing in mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr
Posted by Yizhou Zhao 4 days, 23 hours ago
In mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr(), vector attribute events are encoded three
per byte and valen tracks the number of events left to process.

The parser decrements valen after processing the first and second events
from each event byte, but not after processing the third one. When valen
is exactly a multiple of three, the loop continues after the last valid
event and consumes the next byte as a new event byte, applying a
spurious event to the MRP applicant state.

Additionally, when valen is zero the parser unconditionally consumes
attrlen bytes as FirstValue and advances the offset, even though per
IEEE 802.1ak a VectorAttribute with only a LeaveAllEvent has valen of
zero and no FirstValue or Vector fields. This corrupts the offset for
subsequent PDU parsing.

Also, when valen exceeds three the loop crosses byte boundaries but
the attribute value is not incremented between the last event of one
byte and the first event of the next. This causes the first event of
the next byte to use the same attribute value as the third event
rather than the next consecutive value.

Decrement valen after processing the third event, skip FirstValue
consumption when valen is zero, and increment the attribute value at
the end of each loop iteration.

Changes in v2:
- Add early return when valen is 0 to skip FirstValue consumption,
  addressing the offset corruption noted by Simon Horman
- Add mrp_attrvalue_inc() at the end of each loop iteration to
  correctly advance the attribute value across byte boundaries,
  also noted by Simon Horman
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260527084624.43057-1-zhaoyz24@mails.tsinghua.edu.cn/
