Eric Dumazet 0357da9149 net_sched: sch_sfq: reject invalid perturb period
commit 7ca52541c05c832d32b112274f81a985101f9ba8 upstream.

Gerrard Tai reported that SFQ perturb_period has no range check yet,
and this can be used to trigger a race condition fixed in a separate patch.

We want to make sure ctl->perturb_period * HZ will not overflow
and is positive.

Tested:

tc qd add dev lo root sfq perturb -10   # negative value : error
Error: sch_sfq: invalid perturb period.

tc qd add dev lo root sfq perturb 1000000000 # too big : error
Error: sch_sfq: invalid perturb period.

tc qd add dev lo root sfq perturb 2000000 # acceptable value
tc -s -d qd sh dev lo
qdisc sfq 8005: root refcnt 2 limit 127p quantum 64Kb depth 127 flows 128 divisor 1024 perturb 2000000sec

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.
