Daniel reported that the paged RX changes had broken blockack request frame processing due to using data that wasn't really part of the skb data. Fix this using skb_copy_bits() for the needed data. As a side effect, this adds a check on processing too short frames, which previously this code could do. Reported-by: Daniel Halperin <dhalperi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Ok so maybe this patch is better than the linearize one after all since we only ever process this type of control frame anyway, and unlike skb_linearize() skb_copy_bits() cannot fail (unless the bits didn't exist in the frame to start with). net/mac80211/rx.c | 13 +++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- wireless-testing.orig/net/mac80211/rx.c 2010-05-28 22:25:07.000000000 +0200 +++ wireless-testing/net/mac80211/rx.c 2010-05-30 14:44:00.000000000 +0200 @@ -1819,17 +1819,26 @@ ieee80211_rx_h_ctrl(struct ieee80211_rx_ return RX_CONTINUE; if (ieee80211_is_back_req(bar->frame_control)) { + struct { + __le16 control, start_seq_num; + } __packed bar_data; + if (!rx->sta) return RX_DROP_MONITOR; + + if (skb_copy_bits(skb, offsetof(struct ieee80211_bar, control), + &bar_data, sizeof(bar_data))) + return RX_DROP_MONITOR; + spin_lock(&rx->sta->lock); - tid = le16_to_cpu(bar->control) >> 12; + tid = le16_to_cpu(bar_data.control) >> 12; if (!rx->sta->ampdu_mlme.tid_active_rx[tid]) { spin_unlock(&rx->sta->lock); return RX_DROP_MONITOR; } tid_agg_rx = rx->sta->ampdu_mlme.tid_rx[tid]; - start_seq_num = le16_to_cpu(bar->start_seq_num) >> 4; + start_seq_num = le16_to_cpu(bar_data.start_seq_num) >> 4; /* reset session timer */ if (tid_agg_rx->timeout) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
