Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 17.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objection by 03/13/19. So please
shout if anyone has objection.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the patch applied
to the branch. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Yongseok

Subject: [PATCH] net/af_packet: fix setting MTU decrements sockaddr twice

[ upstream commit 8020573894a8504da3146af1854c8aca762539fd ]

When setting the MTU, eth_dev_mtu_set() is called to validate the
provided MTU. As part of that, it calculates the useful area to store
data and compares it against the MTU, to guarantee that there's enough
space to store the data. It calculates that as:
    "tp_frame_size - TPACKET2_HDRLEN - sizeof(struct sockaddr_ll)"

However, the TPACKET2_HDRLEN macro already increments sizeof(struct
sockaddr_ll) internally, meaning the useuful area of data above will
have sizeof(struct sockaddr_ll) decremented twice.

Instead, the useful area of data should be calculated as:
    "tp_frame_size - TPACKET2_HDRLEN"

This makes sure that there's enough useful area to fit the provided MTU
after excluding tpacket2_hdr and sockaddr_ll.

Fixes: cc68ac4847bc ("net/af_packet: support MTU change")
