When calculating po->tp_hdrlen + po->tp_reserve the result can overflow.

Fix by checking that tp_reserve <= INT_MAX on assign.

This also takes cared of an overflow when calculating
 macoff = TPACKET_ALIGN(po->tp_hdrlen) + 16 + po->tp_reserve
 snaplen = skb->len
 macoff + snaplen
since macoff ~ INT_MAX and snaplen < SKB_MAX_ALLOC.
This refers to the overflow of macoff + snaplen?

Note that macoff is unsigned short, so will truncate any overflow from
tp_reserve.
Yes, you're right.
Should I make macoff unsigned int to fix this?
This is an unrelated issue. On first read, it seems quite harmless as
a process can
cause data to be placed at an offset that causes it to be overwritten
by the tpacket_hdr
later. Worth looking into more closely separately.

This change on its own is sufficient to avoid the overflow. For net
and backports to stable, this minimal patch is preferable.
I will put it into a separate patch then.
Thanks.

Is there a reason that the test is moved up? It is probably not
correct to remove tp_hdrlen from the test.
Just to group together all checks of tp_frame_size and tp_block_size.
That makes sense, but indeed more for net-next. I would then send a single patch
that includes the other new block and frame tests.
I'm not sure there's any difference between checking against
po->tp_hdrlen + po->tp_reserve and just po->tp_reserve.
I guess the correct check should be against
TPACKET_ALIGN(po->tp_hdrlen) + 16 + po->tp_reserve.

Should I use this value?
Yes, for net-next this seems like a good tightening of the test.
