Subject: [PATCH v2] netfilter: Correct calculation using skb->tail and skb-network_header
Date: Fri, 31 May 2013 09:05:46 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369958746-26318-1-git-send-email-horms@verge.net.au> (raw)

This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers
fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In
that case skb->tail will be a pointer whereas skb->network_header
will be an offset from head. This is corrected by using wrappers that
ensure that calculations are always made using pointers.

v2
* Use skb_tail_pointer() to ensure the tail portion of the calculation is
  always a pointer - it is not if NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set.
