[PATCH 3.12 06/91] packet: do skb_probe_transport_header when we actually have data

[Jiri Slaby]

From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

[ Upstream commit efdfa2f7848f64517008136fb41f53c4a1faf93a ]

In tpacket_fill_skb() commit c1aad275b029 ("packet: set transport
header before doing xmit") and later on 40893fd0fd4e ("net: switch
to use skb_probe_transport_header()") was probing for a transport
header on the skb from a ring buffer slot, but at a time, where
the skb has _not even_ been filled with data yet. So that call into
the flow dissector is pretty useless. Lets do it after we've set
up the skb frags.
