[PATCH 4.4 65/65] l2tp: device MTU setup, tunnel socket needs a lock

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

 



From: R. Parameswaran <parameswaran.r7@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 57240d007816486131bee88cd474c2a71f0fe224 upstream.

The MTU overhead calculation in L2TP device set-up
merged via commit b784e7ebfce8cfb16c6f95e14e8532d0768ab7ff
needs to be adjusted to lock the tunnel socket while
referencing the sub-data structures to derive the
socket's IP overhead.
