From: Jason Wang Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2013 13:43:27 +0800 Subject: tuntap: correctly linearize skb when zerocopy is used Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/3dd5c3308e8b671e8e8882ba972f51cefbe9fd0d Userspace may produce vectors greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. When we try to linearize parts of the skb to let the rest of iov to be fit in the frags, we need count copylen into linear when calling tun_alloc_skb() instead of partly counting it into data_len. Since this breaks zerocopy_sg_from_iovec() since its inner counter assumes nr_frags should be zero at beginning. This cause nr_frags to be increased wrongly without setting the correct frags. This bug were introduced from 0690899b4d4501b3505be069b9a687e68ccbe15b (tun: experimental zero copy tx support) Cc: Michael S. Tsirkin Signed-off-by: Jason Wang Acked-by: Michael S.
