# \[PATCH v2 net\] qede: validate non LSO skb length - From: Manish Chopra \ - Date: 2021-12-03 17:44:56 - List: netdev - Page: https://ratatoskr.run/netdev/2021/12/11217845 - Thread: https://ratatoskr.run/netdev/2021/12/11217845/t.md ```text Although it is unlikely that stack could transmit a non LSO skb with length > MTU, however in some cases or environment such occurrences actually resulted into firmware asserts due to packet length being greater than the max supported by the device (~9700B). This patch adds the safeguard for such odd cases to avoid firmware asserts. v1->v2: -------- * Added "Fixes" tag with one of the initial driver commit which enabled the TX traffic actually (as this was probably day1 issue which was discovered recently by some customer environment) Fixes: a2ec6172d29c ("qede: Add support for link") Signed-off-by: Manish Chopra Signed-off-by: Alok Prasad Signed-off-by: Prabhakar Kushwaha Signed-off-by: Ariel Elior --- drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_fp.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_fp.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_fp.c index 065e900..999abcf 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_fp.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_fp.c @@ -1643,6 +1643,13 @@ netdev_tx_t qede_start_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *ndev) data_split = true; } } else { + if (unlikely(skb->len > ETH_TX_MAX_NON_LSO_PKT_LEN)) { + DP_ERR(edev, "Unexpected non LSO skb length = 0x%x\n", skb->len); + qede_free_failed_tx_pkt(txq, first_bd, 0, false); + qede_update_tx_producer(txq); + return NETDEV_TX_OK; + } + val |= ((skb->len & ETH_TX_DATA_1ST_BD_PKT_LEN_MASK) << ETH_TX_DATA_1ST_BD_PKT_LEN_SHIFT); } -- 1.8.3.1 ```
