[PATCH V3] rtlwifi: rtl_pci: Fix problem of too small skb->len

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

 



In commit 8020919a9b99 ("mac80211: Properly handle SKB with radiotap
only"), buffers whose length is too short cause a WARN_ON(1) to be
executed. This change exposed a fault in rtlwifi drivers, which is fixed
by regarding packets with skb->len <= FCS_LEN as though they are in error
and dropping them. The test is now annotated as likely.

Cc: Stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # v5.0+
Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

V2 - content dropped
V3 - changed fix to drop packet rather than arbitrarily increasing the length.
---
Material for 5.4.
