Subject: [PATCH net 04/15] batman-adv: frag: ensure fragment is writable before modifying TTL
Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2026 09:00:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260619070045.438101-5-sw@simonwunderlich.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260619070045.438101-1-sw@simonwunderlich.de>
From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
Before batman-adv is allowed to write to an skb, it either has to have its
own copy of the skb or use skb_cow() to ensure that the data part is not
shared. But batadv_frag_skb_fwd() modifies the TTL even when it is shared.
Adding a skb_cow() right before this operation avoids this and can at the
same time prepare it for the modifications required to forward the
fragment.
