Subject: [PATCH] packet: tpacket_snd(): fix signed/unsigned comparison
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 13:57:01 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438081021-1321-1-git-send-email-al.drozdov@gmail.com> (raw)
tpacket_fill_skb() can return a negative value (-errno) which
is stored in tp_len variable. In that case the following
condition will be (but shouldn't be) true:
tp_len > dev->mtu + dev->hard_header_len
as dev->mtu and dev->hard_header_len are both unsigned.
That may lead to just returning an incorrect EMSGSIZE errno
to the user.
