[PATCH 5.1 006/122] net: test nouarg before dereferencing zerocopy pointers

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

 



From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 185ce5c38ea76f29b6bd9c7c8c7a5e5408834920 ]

Zerocopy skbs without completion notification were added for packet
sockets with PACKET_TX_RING user buffers. Those signal completion
through the TP_STATUS_USER bit in the ring. Zerocopy annotation was
added only to avoid premature notification after clone or orphan, by
triggering a copy on these paths for these packets.

The mechanism had to define a special "no-uarg" mode because packet
sockets already use skb_uarg(skb) == skb_shinfo(skb)->destructor_arg
for a different pointer.

Before deferencing skb_uarg(skb), verify that it is a real pointer.

Fixes: 5cd8d46ea1562 ("packet: copy user buffers before orphan or clone")
