Hi Luiz, I was looking through old bug reports that Lin Horse had reported and was wondering when your patchset would be applied? https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/20210419171257.3865181-1-luiz.dentz@xxxxxxxxx/ I really like the hci_skb_pull() function and I think that it should be made into a top level function which all drivers can use. It's like skb_pull() but it returns the old skb->data instead of skb->data + len. The skb_pull() still updates skb->data and skb->len. static void *skb_pull_data(struct sk_buff *skb, size_t len) { void *data = skb->data; if (skb->len < len) return NULL; skb_pull(skb, len); return data; } There is a lot of code that does "struct foo *p = (void *)skb->data;" and that's hard to audit and error prone. Changing it to: p = skb_pull_data(skb, sizeof(*p)); if (!p) return; seems more clear and safe. regards, dan carpenter > net/bluetooth/hci_event.c:119 hci_cc_role_discovery() assignment assumes
