[PATCH 4.10 19/24] mac80211: fix MU-MIMO follow-MAC mode

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

 



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

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 9e478066eae41211c92a8f63cc69aafc391bd6ab upstream.

There are two bugs in the follow-MAC code:
 * it treats the radiotap header as the 802.11 header
   (therefore it can't possibly work)
 * it doesn't verify that the skb data it accesses is actually
   present in the header, which is mitigated by the first point

Fix this by moving all of this out into a separate function.
This function copies the data it needs using skb_copy_bits()
to make sure it can be accessed if it's paged, and offsets
that by the possibly present vendor radiotap header.

This also makes all those conditions more readable.
