Linux kernel source tree

vhost_vsock_alloc_skb() returns NULL for packets advertising a length
larger than VIRTIO_VSOCK_MAX_PKT_BUF_SIZE in the packet header. However,
this is only checked once the SKB has been allocated and, if the length
in the packet header is zero, the SKB may not be freed immediately.
Hoist the size check before the SKB allocation so that an iovec larger
than VIRTIO_VSOCK_MAX_PKT_BUF_SIZE + the header size is rejected
outright. The subsequent check on the length field in the header can
then simply check that the allocated SKB is indeed large enough to hold
the packet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
