Subject: [PATCH 4.14 114/146] skbuff: orphan frags before zerocopy clone
4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>
[ Upstream commit 268b790679422a89e9ab0685d9f291edae780c98 ]
Call skb_zerocopy_clone after skb_orphan_frags, to avoid duplicate
calls to skb_uarg(skb)->callback for the same data.
skb_zerocopy_clone associates skb_shinfo(skb)->uarg from frag_skb
with each segment. This is only safe for uargs that do refcounting,
which is those that pass skb_orphan_frags without dropping their
shared frags. For others, skb_orphan_frags drops the user frags and
sets the uarg to NULL, after which sock_zerocopy_clone has no effect.
Qemu hangs were reported due to duplicate vhost_net_zerocopy_callback
calls for the same data causing the vhost_net_ubuf_ref_>refcount to
drop below zero.
