The gen_stats facility will add a header for the toplevel nlattr of type TCA_STATS2 that contains all stats added by qdisc callbacks. A reference to this header is stored in the gnet_dump struct, and when all the per-qdisc callbacks have finished adding their stats, the length of the containing header will be adjusted to the right value. However, on architectures that need padding (i.e., that don't set CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS), the padding nlattr is added before the stats, which means that the stored pointer will point to the padding, and so when the header is fixed up, the result is just a very big padding nlattr. Because most qdiscs also supply the legacy TCA_STATS struct, this problem has been mostly invisible, but we exposed it with the netlink attribute-based statistics in CAKE. Fix the issue by fixing up the stored pointer if it points to a padding nlattr.

README
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.
