This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Add missing verification before pushing Tx header to the 6.11-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: mlxsw-spectrum_ptp-add-missing-verification-before-p.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3e3fb6985de856dc13d8b274b0e852c287f143ca Author: Amit Cohen <amcohen@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 25 16:26:25 2024 +0200 mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Add missing verification before pushing Tx header [ Upstream commit 0a66e5582b5102c4d7b866b977ff7c850c1174ce ] Tx header should be pushed for each packet which is transmitted via Spectrum ASICs. The cited commit moved the call to skb_cow_head() from mlxsw_sp_port_xmit() to functions which handle Tx header. In case that mlxsw_sp->ptp_ops->txhdr_construct() is used to handle Tx header, and txhdr_construct() is mlxsw_sp_ptp_txhdr_construct(), there is no call for skb_cow_head() before pushing Tx header size to SKB. This flow is relevant for Spectrum-1 and Spectrum-4, for PTP packets. Add the missing call to skb_cow_head() to make sure that there is both enough room to push the Tx header and that the SKB header is not cloned and can be modified. An additional set will be sent to net-next to centralize the handling of the Tx header by pushing it to every packet just before transmission.
