[ Upstream commit 1837b2e2bc ]
The current reserved_tailroom calculation fails to take hlen and tlen into
account.
skb:
[__hlen__|__data____________|__tlen___|__extra__]
^ ^
head skb_end_offset
In this representation, hlen + data + tlen is the size passed to alloc_skb.
"extra" is the extra space made available in __alloc_skb because of
rounding up by kmalloc. We can reorder the representation like so:
[__hlen__|__data____________|__extra__|__tlen___]
^ ^
head skb_end_offset
The maximum space available for ip headers and payload without
fragmentation is min(mtu, data + extra). Therefore,
reserved_tailroom
= data + extra + tlen - min(mtu, data + extra)
= skb_end_offset - hlen - min(mtu, skb_end_offset - hlen - tlen)
= skb_tailroom - min(mtu, skb_tailroom - tlen) ; after skb_reserve(hlen)
Compare the second line to the current expression:
reserved_tailroom = skb_end_offset - min(mtu, skb_end_offset)
and we can see that hlen and tlen are not taken into account.
The min() in the third line can be expanded into:
if mtu < skb_tailroom - tlen:
reserved_tailroom = skb_tailroom - mtu
else:
reserved_tailroom = tlen
Depending on hlen, tlen, mtu and the number of multicast address records,
the current code may output skbs that have less tailroom than
dev->needed_tailroom or it may output more skbs than needed because not all
space available is used.
