This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled udp: fix poll() issue with zero sized packets to the 4.7-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-fix-poll-issue-with-zero-sized-packets.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.7 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 Wed Sep 21 10:05:18 CEST 2016 From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 13:59:33 -0700 Subject: udp: fix poll() issue with zero sized packets From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e83c6744e81abc93a20d0eb3b7f504a176a6126a ] Laura tracked poll() [and friends] regression caused by commit e6afc8ace6dd ("udp: remove headers from UDP packets before queueing") udp_poll() needs to know if there is a valid packet in receive queue, even if its payload length is 0. Change first_packet_length() to return an signed int, and use -1 as the indication of an empty queue.
