[PATCH net v2 1/3] virtio/vsock: fix header length on skb merging

From: Arseniy Krasnov
Date: Tue Mar 28 2023 - 07:35:03 EST


This fixes appending newly arrived skbuff to the last skbuff of the
socket's queue. Problem fires when we are trying to append data to skbuff
which was already processed in dequeue callback at least once. Dequeue
callback calls function 'skb_pull()' which changes 'skb->len'. In current
implementation 'skb->len' is used to update length in header of the last
skbuff after new data was copied to it. This is bug, because value in
header is used to calculate 'rx_bytes'/'fwd_cnt' and thus must be not
be changed during skbuff's lifetime.

Bug starts to fire since:

commit 077706165717
("virtio/vsock: don't use skbuff state to account credit")

It presents before, but didn't triggered due to a little bit buggy
implementation of credit calculation logic. So use Fixes tag for it.
