Aaron Conole da05eb129c net: openvswitch: limit the number of recursions from action sets 
[ Upstream commit 6e2f90d31f ]

The ovs module allows for some actions to recursively contain an action
list for complex scenarios, such as sampling, checking lengths, etc.
When these actions are copied into the internal flow table, they are
evaluated to validate that such actions make sense, and these calls
happen recursively.

The ovs-vswitchd userspace won't emit more than 16 recursion levels
deep.  However, the module has no such limit and will happily accept
limits larger than 16 levels nested.  Prevent this by tracking the
number of recursions happening and manually limiting it to 16 levels
nested.

The initial implementation of the sample action would track this depth
and prevent more than 3 levels of recursion, but this was removed to
support the clone use case, rather than limited at the current userspace
limit.

Fixes: 798c166173 ("openvswitch: Optimize sample action for the clone use cases")

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.
