IMO this patch does not work as intended.

You probably need to revisit every place where can_skb_reserve() is used,
e.g. in raw_sendmsg().

And the loopback for devices that don't support IFF_ECHO:

BTW: There is a bug with interfaces that don't support IFF_ECHO.

Assume an invalid CAN frame is passed to can_send() on an interface that
doesn't support IFF_ECHO. The above mentioned code does happily generate
an echo frame and it's send, even if the driver drops it, due to
can_dropped_invalid_skb(dev, skb).

The echoed back CAN frame is treated in raw_rcv() as if the headroom is valid:

| https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.17.6/source/net/can/raw.c#L138

But as far as I can see the can_skb_headroom_valid() check never has
been done. What about this patch?

Good point!

But please check the rest of the code.
You need 'goto inval_skb;' instead of the return ;-)

Why? To free the skb? That's what can_dropped_invalid_skb() does, too:

My bad!

Pointing you not reading the code ... should better have looked myself :-D
