If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 53be20b6ea9cc5a8f8a8adbb1163f8bb0fbb09b7 Author: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon May 6 14:39:39 2024 +0000 net: usb: sr9700: stop lying about skb->truesize [ Upstream commit 05417aa9c0c038da2464a0c504b9d4f99814a23b ] Some usb drivers set small skb->truesize and break core networking stacks. In this patch, I removed one of the skb->truesize override. I also replaced one skb_clone() by an allocation of a fresh and small skb, to get minimally sized skbs, like we did in commit 1e2c61172342 ("net: cdc_ncm: reduce skb truesize in rx path") and 4ce62d5b2f7a ("net: usb: ax88179_178a: stop lying about skb->truesize") Fixes: c9b37458e956 ("USB2NET : SR9700 : One chip USB 1.1 USB2NET SR9700Device Driver Support") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240506143939.3673865-1-edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> diff --git a/drivers/net/usb/sr9700.c b/drivers/net/usb/sr9700.c index 811c8751308c6..3fac642bec772 100644 --- a/drivers/net/usb/sr9700.c +++ b/drivers/net/usb/sr9700.c @@ -418,19 +418,15 @@ static int sr9700_rx_fixup(struct usbnet *dev, struct sk_buff *skb) skb_pull(skb, 3); skb->len = len; skb_set_tail_pointer(skb, len); - skb->truesize = len + sizeof(struct sk_buff); return 2; } - /* skb_clone is used for address align */ - sr_skb = skb_clone(skb, GFP_ATOMIC); + sr_skb = netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align(dev->net, len); if (!sr_skb) return 0; - sr_skb->len = len; - sr_skb->data = skb->data + 3; - skb_set_tail_pointer(sr_skb, len); - sr_skb->truesize = len + sizeof(struct sk_buff); + skb_put(sr_skb, len); + memcpy(sr_skb->data, skb->data + 3, len); usbnet_skb_return(dev, sr_skb); skb_pull(skb, len + SR_RX_OVERHEAD);
