Subject: [PATCH net-next 07/15] batman-adv: mcast: linearize skbuff for packet generation
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 15:39:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728133918.643267-8-sw@simonwunderlich.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728133918.643267-1-sw@simonwunderlich.de>

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

batadv_mcast_forw_packet() and batadv_mcast_forw_packet() is not only
called by the unsharing+linearizing batadv_recv_mcast_packet() handler.
When it is called by batadv_mcast_forw_mcsend() then it will be unshared
but not linearized. The SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT() can therefore cause a fatal
BUG().

The linearization should happen during the expansion of the head because
the call chain because the scrape function can be hit already during the
initial batadv_mcast_forw_mode() selection code:

* batadv_interface_tx
* batadv_mcast_forw_mode
* batadv_mcast_forw_mode_by_count()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push()
  -> calls batadv_mcast_forw_expand_head() before everything else
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_tvlvs()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_dests()
* batadv_mcast_forw_push_adjust_padding()
* batadv_mcast_forw_scrape()
