Zijie Huang a627d36c2a net/sched: reject overly deep qdisc hierarchies 
[ Upstream commit dedd34b0f2 ]

Deep qdisc hierarchies can lead to excessive recursion in qdisc tree
walkers and exhaust the kernel stack. The existing loop check does not
cover the create-and-graft path, so a hierarchy can still be extended by
creating a new child qdisc below an already deep parent.

Store the hierarchy depth in struct Qdisc and update it when qdiscs are
grafted. Reject new child qdiscs once the parent is already at the maximum
allowed depth.

README 

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 Restructured Text 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.
