On L3, the qeth_hdr struct needs to be filled with the next-hop IP address. The current code accesses rtable->rt_gateway without checking that rtable is a valid address. The accidental access to a lowcore area results in a random next-hop address in the qeth_hdr. rtable (or more precisely, skb_dst(skb)) can be NULL in rare cases (for instance together with AF_PACKET sockets). This patch adds the missing NULL-ptr checks.

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.
