[ Upstream commita25bab9d72] The per hardif sysfs file "batman_adv/elp_interval" is using the generic functions to store/show uint values. The helper __batadv_store_uint_attr requires the softif net_device as parameter to print the resulting change as info text when the users writes to this file. It uses the helper function batadv_info to add it at the same time to the kernel ring buffer and to the batman-adv debug log (when CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG is enabled). The function batadv_info requires as first parameter the batman-adv softif net_device. This parameter is then used to find the private buffer which contains the debug log for this batman-adv interface. But batadv_store_throughput_override used as first argument the slave net_device. This slave device doesn't have the batadv_priv private data which is access by batadv_info. Writing to this file with CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DEBUG enabled can either lead to a segfault or to memory corruption.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
