From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 4c93496f18ce5044d78e4f7f9e018682a4f44b3d upstream. This fixes a over-read condition detected by FORTIFY_SOURCE for this line: memcpy(SKB_TO_PKT(skb), &ack_pkt, sizeof(skb->cb)); The error was: In file included from ./include/linux/bitmap.h:8:0, from ./include/linux/cpumask.h:11, from ./include/linux/mm_types_task.h:13, from ./include/linux/mm_types.h:4, from ./include/linux/kmemcheck.h:4, from ./include/linux/skbuff.h:18, from drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.c:34: In function 'memcpy', inlined from 'send_atomic_ack.constprop' at drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.c:998:2, inlined from 'acknowledge' at drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.c:1026:3, inlined from 'rxe_responder' at drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.c:1286:10: ./include/linux/string.h:309:4: error: call to '__read_overflow2' declared with attribute error: detected read beyond size of object passed as 2nd parameter __read_overflow2(); Daniel Micay noted that struct rxe_pkt_info is 32 bytes on 32-bit architectures, but skb->cb is still 64. The memcpy() over-reads 32 bytes. This fixes it by zeroing the unused bytes in skb->cb.
