From 6e42141009ff18297fe19d19296738b742f861db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Ilpo=20J=E4rvinen?= Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2007 23:24:09 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [TCP] MTUprobe: fix potential sk_send_head corruption MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When the abstraction functions got added, conversion here was made incorrectly. As a result, the skb may end up pointing to skb which got included to the probe skb and then was freed. For it to trigger, however, skb_transmit must fail sending as well.
