Re: [PATCH net v2 1/2] net: fix skb length accounting after generic XDP frag adjustment

[Lorenzo Bianconi]

> Generic XDP exposes non-linear skb fragments through an xdp_buff. If an
> XDP program adjusts the fragment area, bpf_prog_run_generic_xdp() copies
> xdp_frags_size back to skb->data_len but leaves skb->len containing the
> old fragment contribution.
> 
> After a fragment shrink, this makes skb_headlen() larger than the actual
> linear area. In the reproduced UDP receive path, __skb_datagram_iter()
> copied 1024 bytes past the actual linear tail to userspace, starting at
> struct skb_shared_info. The copied bytes included the affected skb's
> nr_frags, xdp_frags_size and a kernel pointer from
> skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[0]. Real packet data was displaced by the same
> amount and truncated at the end.

> Subtract the old data_len before replacing it and add the new data_len
> afterwards, keeping skb->len and skb->data_len synchronized.

> corrupted payloads. After the fix, all 10 runs matched the expected
