[PATCH stable v2 0/3] virtio-net: backport error handling bugfix

[PATCH stable v2 0/3] virtio-net: backport error handling bugfix

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

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

[PATCH stable v2 1/3] virtio_net: fix error handling for mergeable buffers

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

Eric Dumazet noticed that if we encounter an error
when processing a mergeable buffer, we don't
dequeue all of the buffers from this packet,
the result is almost sure to be loss of networking.

Fix this issue.

[PATCH stable v2 2/3] virtio-net: make all RX paths handle errors consistently

receive mergeable now handles errors internally.
Do same for big and small packet paths, otherwise
the logic is too hard to follow.

[PATCH stable v2 2/3] virtio-net: make all RX paths handle errors consistently

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

receive mergeable now handles errors internally.
Do same for big and small packet paths, otherwise
the logic is too hard to follow.

[PATCH stable v2 3/3] virtio_net: don't leak memory or block when too many frags

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

We leak an skb when there are too many frags,
we also stop processing the packet in the middle,
the result is almost sure to be loss of networking.
