[patch added to 3.12-stable] net: fix harmonize_features() vs NETIF_F_HIGHDMA

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 7be2c82cfd5d28d7adb66821a992604eb6dd112e ]

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

Fixes: ec5f06156423 ("net: Kill link between CSUM and SG features.")
