gro: Fix illegal merging of trailer trash

2009-11-17T13:18:18+00:00

When we've merged skb's with page frags, and subsequently receive
a trailer skb (< MSS) that is not completely non-linear (this can
occur on Intel NICs if the packet size falls below the threshold),
GRO ends up producing an illegal GSO skb with a frag_list.

This is harmless unless the skb is then forwarded through an
interface that requires software GSO, whereupon the GSO code
will BUG.

This patch detects this case in GRO and avoids merging the
trailer skb.

skbuff: Do not allow skb recycling with disabled IRQs

2009-11-12T03:03:28+00:00

NAPI drivers try to recycle SKBs in their polling routine, but we
generally don't know the context in which the polling will be called,
and the skb recycling itself may require IRQs to be enabled.

This patch adds irqs_disabled() test to the skb_recycle_check()
routine, so that we'll not let the drivers hit the skb recycling
path with IRQs disabled.

As a side effect, this patch actually disables skb recycling for some
[broken] drivers. E.g. gianfar driver grabs an irqsave spinlock during
TX ring processing, and then tries to recycle an skb, and that caused
the following badness:

skbuff: don't corrupt mac_header on skb expansion

2009-06-18T01:46:41+00:00

The skb mac_header field is sometimes NULL (or ~0u) as a sentinel
value. The places where skb is expanded add an offset which would
change this flag into an invalid pointer (or offset).

skbuff: skb_mac_header_was_set is always true on >32 bit

2009-06-18T01:46:03+00:00

Looking at the crash in log_martians(), one suspect is that the check for
mac header being set is not correct.  The value of mac_header defaults to
0 on allocation, therefore skb_mac_header_was_set will always be true on
platforms using NET_SKBUFF_USES_OFFSET.
