CVE-2026-98104

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/sched: cls_u32: fix duplicate handle when node ID pool is exhausted

gen_new_kid() falls back to returning max (htid | 0xFFF) when both
idr_alloc_u32() ranges are full, instead of reporting an error.
u32_change() trusts that value and inserts a new knode with a handle
that is already live in the hash table, breaking handle uniqueness
within the table's node ID space.

The handle was never reserved in ht->handle_idr, so every later error
path that does idr_remove(&ht->handle_idr, handle) removes the
reservation of a different, live knode, which is then reused — one
failed add compounds into further duplicates.

The 4095 limit is per (table, bucket) — ht->handle_idr is per hash
table and the range is derived from htid (bucketid), so a table with
divisor 256 can legitimately hold 256*4095 knodes.

The sibling helper gen_new_htid() has the same silent in-band failure:
it returns 0 when the tp_c handle pool (1..0x7FF) is full, and
u32_init() publishes the root hash table with handle 0 without
checking.  Two root tables with handle 0 alias in u32_lookup_ht(),
allowing cross-tcf_proto knode add/lookup/delete.  Add the same
exhaustion check that the divisor path already has.

Return an error so u32_change() fails with ENOSPC/ENOMEM when the
node ID space is exhausted, and so u32_init() fails with -ENOMEM
when the hash table ID space is exhausted.  The extack message
distinguishes pool exhaustion (-ENOSPC) from a transient allocation
failure (-ENOMEM).

Conditions to recreate the bug:
- CONFIG_NET_SCHED=y, CONFIG_CLS_U32=y (or =m with module loaded)
- Create a clsact qdisc on a device, then add 4095 u32 filters with
  auto-generated handles to fill the node ID space for the root hash
  table (single bucket). The 4096th auto-handle filter add triggers
  the duplicate handle (fh 800::fff reused). Reachable at Level 2
  (unshare -Urn, namespace-local CAP_NET_ADMIN).
- For gen_new_htid: create 2047 u32 proto entries on the same block
  to fill the tp_c handle pool, then create one more. The root table
  gets handle 0 and aliases with other handle-0 root tables.
