From ff6e798c2eac3ebd0501ad7e796f583fab928de8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Begunkov Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 19:43:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: skbuff: fix pskb_carve leaking zcopy pages When SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS is set, frag pages are not refcounted but their lifetime is controlled by the attached ubuf_info. To make a copy of the skb_shared_info, we either should clear the flag and reference the frags, or keep the flag and have frags unreferenced. pskb_carve_inside_header() and pskb_carve_inside_nonlinear() don't follow the rule and thus can leak page references. Let's clear SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS from the original skb to fix it. It's the simplest way to address it, but there are more performant ways to do that if it ever becomes a problem.
