Subject: [PATCH] dvb-core: Fix ULE decapsulation bug when less than 4 bytes of ULE SNDU is packed into the remaining bytes of a MPEG2-TS frame
Date: Thu, 06 May 2010 22:52:22 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BE2D7A6.30201@gmail.com> (raw)
ULE (Unidirectional Lightweight Encapsulation RFC 4326) decapsulation
code has a bug that incorrectly treats ULE SNDU packed into the
remaining 2 or 3 bytes of a MPEG2-TS frame as having invalid pointer
field on the subsequent MPEG2-TS frame.
This patch was generated and tested against v2.6.34-rc6. I suspect
that this bug was introduced in kernel version 2.6.15, but had not
verified it.
Care has been taken not to introduce more bug by fixing this bug, but
please scrutinize the code because I always produces buggy code.
