[PATCH 1/1] xen-netback: process malformed sk_buff correctly to avoid BUG_ON()
From: Dongli Zhang
Date: Tue Mar 27 2018 - 19:41:26 EST
The "BUG_ON(!frag_iter)" in function xenvif_rx_next_chunk() is triggered if
the received sk_buff is malformed, that is, when the sk_buff has pattern
(skb->data_len && !skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags). Below is a sample call
stack:

The issue is hit by xen-netback when there is bug with other networking
interface (e.g., dom0 physical NIC), who has generated and forwarded
malformed sk_buff to dom0 vifX.Y. It is possible to reproduce the issue on
purpose with below sample code in a kernel module:
skb->dev = dev; // dev of vifX.Y
skb->len = 386;
skb->data_len = 352;
skb->tail = 98;
skb->end = 384;
dev->netdev_ops->ndo_start_xmit(skb, dev);
This patch stops processing sk_buff immediately if it is detected as
malformed, that is, pkt->frag_iter is NULL but there is still remaining
pkt->remaining_len.
