This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled packet: only allow extra vlan len on ethernet devices to the 4.2-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: packet-only-allow-extra-vlan-len-on-ethernet-devices.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Fri Dec 11 11:38:35 EST 2015 From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2015 23:25:42 +0100 Subject: packet: only allow extra vlan len on ethernet devices From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3c70c132488794e2489ab045559b0ce0afcf17de ] Packet sockets can be used by various net devices and are not really restricted to ARPHRD_ETHER device types. However, when currently checking for the extra 4 bytes that can be transmitted in VLAN case, our assumption is that we generally probe on ARPHRD_ETHER devices. Therefore, before looking into Ethernet header, check the device type first. This also fixes the issue where non-ARPHRD_ETHER devices could have no dev->hard_header_len in TX_RING SOCK_RAW case, and thus the check would test unfilled linear part of the skb (instead of non-linear). Fixes: 57f89bfa2140 ("network: Allow af_packet to transmit +4 bytes for VLAN packets.") Fixes: 52f1454f629f ("packet: allow to transmit +4 byte in TX_RING slot for VLAN case") Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
