Subject: [PATCH 2/2] vlan: adjust vlan_set_encap_proto() for its callers
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 17:32:27 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361525547-21808-2-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1361525547-21808-1-git-send-email-amwang@redhat.com>

From: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com>

There are two places to call vlan_set_encap_proto():
vlan_untag() and __pop_vlan_tci().

vlan_untag() assumes skb->data points after mac addr, otherwise
the following code

        vhdr = (struct vlan_hdr *) skb->data;
        vlan_tci = ntohs(vhdr->h_vlan_TCI);
        __vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, vlan_tci);

        skb_pull_rcsum(skb, VLAN_HLEN);

won't be correct. But __pop_vlan_tci() assumes points _before_
mac addr.

In vlan_set_encap_proto(), it looks for some magic L2 value
after mac addr:

        rawp = skb->data;
        if (*(unsigned short *) rawp == 0xFFFF)
	...

Therefore __pop_vlan_tci() is obviously wrong.

A quick fix is avoiding using skb->data in vlan_set_encap_proto(),
use 'vhdr+1' is always correct in both cases.
