Subject: [PATCH] net: deal wrong skb and failure ret from __tcp_retransmit_skb
Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2018 19:26:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180419112653.GA108857@sofia> (raw)

Hit below panic due to skb is NULL, WARN wrong skb first.
if __tcp_retransmit_skb return failure e.g. -EAGAIN, it
needn't do further action in tcp_retransmit_skb.

gdb vmlinux
Reading symbols from vmlinux...done.
(gdb) p &((struct tcp_skb_cb *) \
&(((struct sk_buff *)0)->cb[0]))->tcp_gso_segs
$1 = (u16 *) 0x30 <irq_stack_union+48>
