 problem

Hi Tristram,

Could you, please, tell me if the above variable was false in your case?

bool cloned = skb_cloned(*skb) || skb_header_cloned(*skb);

If yes, then, the proper fix would be as follows:

diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c
index 8f5bf9166c11..492a8e1a34cd 100644
--- a/drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c
+++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c
@@ -1690,7 +1690,7 @@ static int macb_pad_and_fcs(struct sk_buff **skb, struct net_device *ndev)
                padlen += ETH_FCS_LEN;
        }
 
-       if (!cloned && headroom + tailroom >= padlen) {
+       if (!cloned && headroom + tailroom >= ETH_FCS_LEN) {
                (*skb)->data = memmove((*skb)->head, (*skb)->data, (*skb)->len);
                skb_set_tail_pointer(*skb, (*skb)->len);
        } else {

Could you please check if it works in your case (and without your patch)?

Thank you,
Claudiu Beznea
