Subject: [PATCH net 7/9] batman-adv: mcast: ensure unshared skb for multicast packets
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 11:48:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260821094813.201800-8-sw@simonwunderlich.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260821094813.201800-1-sw@simonwunderlich.de>
From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>
When a packet is transmitted via a batman-adv interface and has already
enough room for the header then nothing will make sure that the skbuff is
unshared. But it is not allowed to modify a currently shared skbuff.
Always make sure that the pskb_expand_head() is not only called for a too
small header but also for shared skbuffs.
