[PATCH 4.4 09/34] net: pktgen: fix pkt_size

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Nov 13 2016 - 06:27:05 EST


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

------------------

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 63d75463c91a5b5be7c0aca11ceb45ea5a0ae81d ]

The commit 879c7220e828 ("net: pktgen: Observe needed_headroom
of the device") increased the 'pkt_overhead' field value by
LL_RESERVED_SPACE.
As a side effect the generated packet size, computed as:

/* Eth + IPh + UDPh + mpls */
datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 - 20 - 8 -
pkt_dev->pkt_overhead;

is decreased by the same value.
The above changed slightly the behavior of existing pktgen users,
and made the procfs interface somewhat inconsistent.
Fix it by restoring the previous pkt_overhead value and using
LL_RESERVED_SPACE as extralen in skb allocation.
Also, change pktgen_alloc_skb() to only partially reserve
the headroom to allow the caller to prefetch from ll header
start.

v1 -> v2:
- fixed some typos in the comments
