Subject: [PATCH 6.1 14/25] batman-adv: frag: ensure fragment is writable before modifying TTL
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2026 18:11:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626161123.124273-15-sven@narfation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260626161123.124273-1-sven@narfation.org>

commit b7293c6e8c15b2db77809b25cf8389e35331b27a upstream.

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.
