[PATCH 4.9 104/130] packet: reset network header if packet shorter than ll reserved space

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Aug 23 2018 - 04:11:23 EST


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

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

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 993675a3100b16a4c80dfd70cbcde8ea7127b31d ]

If variable length link layer headers result in a packet shorter
than dev->hard_header_len, reset the network header offset. Else
skb->mac_len may exceed skb->len after skb_mac_reset_len.

packet_sendmsg_spkt already has similar logic.

Fixes: b84bbaf7a6c8 ("packet: in packet_snd start writing at link layer allocation")
