Subject: [PATCH] Staging: rtl8192e: Fix return type of rtllib_xmit
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2022 14:45:44 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220912214548.929144-1-nhuck@google.com> (raw)

The ndo_start_xmit field in net_device_ops is expected to be of type
netdev_tx_t (*ndo_start_xmit)(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev).

The mismatched return type breaks forward edge kCFI since the underlying
function definition does not match the function hook definition.

The return type of rtllib_xmit should be changed from int to
netdev_tx_t.
