This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled macvtap: signal truncated packets to the 3.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: macvtap-signal-truncated-packets.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Jan 13 09:28:30 PST 2014 From: Jason Wang <jasowang@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2013 13:08:34 +0800 Subject: macvtap: signal truncated packets From: Jason Wang <jasowang@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ce232ce01d61b184202bb185103d119820e1260c ] macvtap_put_user() never return a value grater than iov length, this in fact bypasses the truncated checking in macvtap_recvmsg(). Fix this by always returning the size of packet plus the possible vlan header to let the trunca checking work.
