Subject: [Regression net-next] include/linux/skbuff.h: "1a37e41 net: Use 16bits for *_headers fields of struct skbuff"
Date: Thu, 30 May 2013 19:21:17 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51A7362D.4070501@asianux.com> (raw)
Hello Maintainers:
When not define NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET, 'sk_buff_data_t' will be a
pointer, then the last parameter of memmove() in mangle_contents() will
be a pointer in "net/netfilter/nf_nat_helper.c".
The reason is from the patch "1a37e41 net: Use 16bits for *_headers
fields of struct skbuff", it changed the type of 'skb->network_header'
for saving size, it needs additional improvement.
The related warning (make EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W ARCH=m68k allmodconfig):
arch/m68k/include/asm/string.h:61:14: note: expected ‘__kernel_size_t’ but argument is of type ‘sk_buff_data_t’
in "net/netfilter/nf_nat_helper.c"
91 /* Frobs data inside this packet, which is linear. */
92 static void mangle_contents(struct sk_buff *skb,
93 unsigned int dataoff,
94 unsigned int match_offset,
95 unsigned int match_len,
96 const char *rep_buffer,
97 unsigned int rep_len)
98 {
99 unsigned char *data;
100
101 BUG_ON(skb_is_nonlinear(skb));
102 data = skb_network_header(skb) + dataoff;
103
104 /* move post-replacement */
105 memmove(data + match_offset + rep_len,
106 data + match_offset + match_len,
107 skb->tail - (skb->network_header + dataoff +
108 match_offset + match_len));
109
in "include/linux/skbuff.h":
409 struct sk_buff {
410 /* These two members must be first. */
411 struct sk_buff *next;
412 struct sk_buff *prev;
413
414 ktime_t tstamp;
415
416 struct sock *sk;
417 struct net_device *dev;
418

515 __be16 inner_protocol;

520 __u16 network_header;
521 __u16 mac_header;
522 /* These elements must be at the end, see alloc_skb() for details. */
523 sk_buff_data_t tail;
524 sk_buff_data_t end;
525 unsigned char *head,
526 *data;
527 unsigned int truesize;
