Subject: [PATCH] Wrong return value corrupts free object in e1000 driver
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9e927fb6186b6913d47d33068160088a084d568e;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] Wrong return value corrupts free object in e1000 driver

For some reason, E1000's ->hard_start_xmit() routine returns -EFAULT
instead of one of the NETDEV_TX_* error codes.  In fact, it frees up
the SKB before returning this.  This makes the queueing layer think
the packet should be requeued and subsequently we corrupt a freed
object.
