This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled udp: properly support MSG_PEEK with truncated buffers to the 3.14-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: udp-properly-support-msg_peek-with-truncated-buffers.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 197c949e7798fbf28cfadc69d9ca0c2abbf93191 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 30 Dec 2015 08:51:12 -0500 Subject: udp: properly support MSG_PEEK with truncated buffers From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 197c949e7798fbf28cfadc69d9ca0c2abbf93191 upstream. Backport of this upstream commit into stable kernels : 89c22d8c3b27 ("net: Fix skb csum races when peeking") exposed a bug in udp stack vs MSG_PEEK support, when user provides a buffer smaller than skb payload. In this case, skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec(skb, sizeof(struct udphdr), msg->msg_iov); returns -EFAULT. This bug does not happen in upstream kernels since Al Viro did a great job to replace this into : skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_msg(skb, sizeof(struct udphdr), msg); This variant is safe vs short buffers. For the time being, instead reverting Herbert Xu patch and add back skb->ip_summed invalid changes, simply store the result of udp_lib_checksum_complete() so that we avoid computing the checksum a second time, and avoid the problematic skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec() call. This patch can be applied on recent kernels as it avoids a double checksumming, then backported to stable kernels as a bug fix.
