Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 5/5] vxlan: use pskb_network_may_pull() for transmit path header pulls
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 05:11:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260812091127.1349673-5-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260812091127.1349673-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
[ Upstream commit b9553558b48db54ac9273e6b98d7263ef5c1a329 ]
In vxlan_xmit(), arp_reduce(), and vxlan_mdb_entry_skb_get(), pskb_may_pull() was
being called to verify the availability of network layer headers (ARP, IPv6/ND,
IP/IPv6 MDB keys).
However, during transmit skb->data points to the MAC header, so skb_network_offset(skb)
is ETH_HLEN (14 bytes). Using pskb_may_pull(skb, len) only checks len bytes from skb->data
rather than skb_network_offset(skb) + len, which can leave part of the network header
in non-linear frags.
Replace these remaining pskb_may_pull() calls with pskb_network_may_pull() to properly
account for the MAC header offset.
Fixes: e4f67addf158 ("add DOVE extensions for VXLAN")
Fixes: f564f45c4518 ("vxlan: add ipv6 proxy support")
Fixes: 0f83e69f44bf ("vxlan: Add MDB data path support")
