From: Janusz Dziedzic <janusz.dziedzic@xxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 47b4e1fc4972cc43a19121bc2608a60aef3bf216 upstream. Remove checking tailroom when adding IV as it uses only headroom, and move the check to the ICV generation that actually needs the tailroom. In other case I hit such warning and datapath don't work, when testing: - IBSS + WEP - ath9k with hw crypt enabled - IPv6 data (ping6) WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 13301 at net/mac80211/wep.c:102 ieee80211_wep_add_iv+0x129/0x190 [mac80211]() [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff817bf491>] dump_stack+0x45/0x57 [<ffffffff8107746a>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8a/0xc0 [<ffffffff8107755a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [<ffffffffc09ae109>] ieee80211_wep_add_iv+0x129/0x190 [mac80211] [<ffffffffc09ae7ab>] ieee80211_crypto_wep_encrypt+0x6b/0xd0 [mac80211] [<ffffffffc09d3fb1>] invoke_tx_handlers+0xc51/0xf30 [mac80211] [...] Signed-off-by: Janusz Dziedzic <janusz.dziedzic@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx> --- net/mac80211/wep.c | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/net/mac80211/wep.c b/net/mac80211/wep.c index 6ee2b5863572..f21b142dee1f 100644 --- a/net/mac80211/wep.c +++ b/net/mac80211/wep.c @@ -98,8 +98,7 @@ static u8 *ieee80211_wep_add_iv(struct ieee80211_local *local, hdr->frame_control |= cpu_to_le16(IEEE80211_FCTL_PROTECTED); - if (WARN_ON(skb_tailroom(skb) < IEEE80211_WEP_ICV_LEN || - skb_headroom(skb) < IEEE80211_WEP_IV_LEN)) + if (WARN_ON(skb_headroom(skb) < IEEE80211_WEP_IV_LEN)) return NULL; hdrlen = ieee80211_hdrlen(hdr->frame_control); @@ -169,6 +168,9 @@ int ieee80211_wep_encrypt(struct ieee80211_local *local, size_t len; u8 rc4key[3 + WLAN_KEY_LEN_WEP104]; + if (WARN_ON(skb_tailroom(skb) < IEEE80211_WEP_ICV_LEN)) + return -1; + iv = ieee80211_wep_add_iv(local, skb, keylen, keyidx); if (!iv) return -1; -- 2.4.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
