3.2.86-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 5edabca9d4cff7f1f2b68f0bac55ef99d9798ba4 upstream. In the current DCCP implementation an skb for a DCCP_PKT_REQUEST packet is forcibly freed via __kfree_skb in dccp_rcv_state_process if dccp_v6_conn_request successfully returns. However, if IPV6_RECVPKTINFO is set on a socket, the address of the skb is saved to ireq->pktopts and the ref count for skb is incremented in dccp_v6_conn_request, so skb is still in use. Nevertheless, it gets freed in dccp_rcv_state_process. Fix by calling consume_skb instead of doing goto discard and therefore calling __kfree_skb. Similar fixes for TCP: fb7e2399ec17f1004c0e0ccfd17439f8759ede01 [TCP]: skb is unexpectedly freed. 0aea76d35c9651d55bbaf746e7914e5f9ae5a25d tcp: SYN packets are now simply consumed Signed-off-by: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
