If the fragment is discarded in mt76_add_fragment() since shared_info frag array is full, discard truncated frames and do not forward them to mac80211. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@kernel.org>Should there be a Fixes line? I can add it.I am not sure it needs a Fixes tag.I think the commit log should have some kind of description about the background of the issue, for example if this is a recent regression or has been there forever etc.Agree. Can you please check the commit log below? " Commit 'b102f0c522cf6 ("mt76: fix array overflow on receiving too many fragments for a packet")' fixes a possible OOB access but it introduces a memory leak since the pending frame is not released to page_frag_cache if the frag array of skb_shared_info is full. Commit '93a1d4791c10 ("mt76: dma: fix a possible memory leak in mt76_add_fragment()")' fixes the issue but does not free the truncated skb that is forwarded to mac80211 layer. Fix the leftover issue discarding even truncated skbs. "Looks good, but I think the recommended style for commit ids is not to use ' chararacter. So I would change it to this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Commit b102f0c522cf6 ("mt76: fix array overflow on receiving too many fragments for a packet") fixes a possible OOB access but it introduces a memory leak since the pending frame is not released to page_frag_cache if the frag array of skb_shared_info is full. Commit 93a1d4791c10 ("mt76: dma: fix a possible memory leak in mt76_add_fragment()") fixes the issue but does not free the truncated skb that is forwarded to mac80211 layer. Fix the leftover issue discarding even truncated skbs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Should I add that to the commit log and queue the patch to be applied after the merge window opens?
ack, fine to me, thx. Regards, Lorenzo
