Subject: [PATCH stable v2 0/3] virtio-net: backport error handling bugfix
Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2013 15:32:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1388064752-15734-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com> (raw)
Error handling for virtio-net mergeable buffers was broken
for a long time. Backport recent bugfix to a stable
kernel.
Please note that it's really a single change split out for ease of
review - that's why 2/2 is here even though it's not
stricktly a bugfix - the code becomes too confusing without it.
Please review and consider for stable.
Changes from v1:
- include patch 3/3 as suggested by Michael
- tweak commit log as suggested by Jason
Michael S. Tsirkin (3):
virtio_net: fix error handling for mergeable buffers
virtio-net: make all RX paths handle errors consistently
virtio_net: don't leak memory or block when too many frags
