      tun: orphan an skb on tx · 0110d6f2
      Michael S. Tsirkin 提交于
      The following situation was observed in the field:
      tap1 sends packets, tap2 does not consume them, as a result
      tap1 can not be closed. This happens because
      tun/tap devices can hang on to skbs undefinitely.
      
      As noted by Herbert, possible solutions include a timeout followed by a
      copy/change of ownership of the skb, or always copying/changing
      ownership if we're going into a hostile device.
      
      This patch implements the second approach.
      
      Note: one issue still remaining is that since skbs
      keep reference to tun socket and tun socket has a
      reference to tun device, we won't flush backlog,
      instead simply waiting for all skbs to get transmitted.
      At least this is not user-triggerable, and
      this was not reported in practice, my assumption is
      other devices besides tap complete an skb
      within finite time after it has been queued.
      
      A possible solution for the second issue
      would not to have socket reference the device,
      instead, implement dev->destructor for tun, and
      wait for all skbs to complete there, but this
      needs some thought, probably too risky for 2.6.34.

      forcedeth: fix tx limit2 flag check · 5c659322
      Ayaz Abdulla 提交于
      This is a fix for bug 572201 @ bugs.debian.org
      
      This patch fixes the TX_LIMIT feature flag. The previous logic check
      for TX_LIMIT2 also took into account a device that only had TX_LIMIT
      set.
