From 3da812d860755925da890e8c713f2d2e2d7b1bae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Frederic Sowa Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2013 05:40:50 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: gre: correct calculation of max_headroom gre_hlen already accounts for sizeof(struct ipv6_hdr) + gre header, so initialize max_headroom to zero. Otherwise the if (encap_limit >= 0) { max_headroom += 8; mtu -= 8; } increments an uninitialized variable before max_headroom was reset.
