This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests/net: Interpret UDP_GRO cmsg data as an int value to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftests-net-interpret-udp_gro-cmsg-data-as-an-int-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 61f39c2f8b1c6afb5362b772ba3fb5c9cb728beb Author: Jakub Sitnicki <jakub@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Feb 16 13:43:40 2023 +0100 selftests/net: Interpret UDP_GRO cmsg data as an int value [ Upstream commit 436864095a95fcc611c20c44a111985fa9848730 ] Data passed to user-space with a (SOL_UDP, UDP_GRO) cmsg carries an int (see udp_cmsg_recv), not a u16 value, as strace confirms: recvmsg(8, {msg_name=..., msg_iov=[{iov_base="\0\0..."..., iov_len=96000}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_control=[{cmsg_len=20, <-- sizeof(cmsghdr) + 4 cmsg_level=SOL_UDP, cmsg_type=0x68}], <-- UDP_GRO msg_controllen=24, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 11200 Interpreting the data as an u16 value won't work on big-endian platforms. Since it is too late to back out of this API decision [1], fix the test.
