Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net/sched: taprio: extend minimum interval restriction to entire cycle too<br />
<br />
It is possible for syzbot to side-step the restriction imposed by the<br />
blamed commit in the Fixes: tag, because the taprio UAPI permits a<br />
cycle-time different from (and potentially shorter than) the sum of<br />
entry intervals.<br />
<br />
We need one more restriction, which is that the cycle time itself must<br />
be larger than N * ETH_ZLEN bit times, where N is the number of schedule<br />
entries. This restriction needs to apply regardless of whether the cycle<br />
time came from the user or was the implicit, auto-calculated value, so<br />
we move the existing "cycle == 0" check outside the "if "(!new->cycle_time)"<br />
branch. This way covers both conditions and scenarios.<br />
<br />
Add a selftest which illustrates the issue triggered by syzbot.
