[PATCH 4.4 17/20] packet: round up linear to header len

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

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 57031eb794906eea4e1c7b31dc1e2429c0af0c66 ]

Link layer protocols may unconditionally pull headers, as Ethernet
does in eth_type_trans. Ensure that the entire link layer header
always lies in the skb linear segment. tpacket_snd has such a check.
Extend this to packet_snd.

Variable length link layer headers complicate the computation
somewhat. Here skb->len may be smaller than dev->hard_header_len.

Round up the linear length to be at least as long as the smallest of
the two.
