[ Upstream commit1c87e79a00] Jianlin reported a crash: [ 381.484332] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000068 [ 381.619802] RIP: 0010:fib6_rule_lookup+0xa3/0x160 [ 382.009615] Call Trace: [ 382.020762] <IRQ> [ 382.030174] ip6_route_redirect.isra.52+0xc9/0xf0 [ 382.050984] ip6_redirect+0xb6/0xf0 [ 382.066731] icmpv6_notify+0xca/0x190 [ 382.083185] ndisc_redirect_rcv+0x10f/0x160 [ 382.102569] ndisc_rcv+0xfb/0x100 [ 382.117725] icmpv6_rcv+0x3f2/0x520 [ 382.133637] ip6_input_finish+0xbf/0x460 [ 382.151634] ip6_input+0x3b/0xb0 [ 382.166097] ipv6_rcv+0x378/0x4e0 It was caused by the lookup function __ip6_route_redirect() returns NULL in fib6_rule_lookup() when ip6_create_rt_rcu() returns NULL. So we fix it by simply making ip6_create_rt_rcu() return ip6_null_entry instead of NULL. v1->v2: - move down 'fallback:' to make it more readable.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
