From c780a049f9bf442314335372c9abc4548bfe3e44 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 11:09:12 -0700 Subject: ipv4: better IP_MAX_MTU enforcement While working on yet another syzkaller report, I found that our IP_MAX_MTU enforcements were not properly done. gcc seems to reload dev->mtu for min(dev->mtu, IP_MAX_MTU), and final result can be bigger than IP_MAX_MTU :/ This is a problem because device mtu can be changed on other cpus or threads. While this patch does not fix the issue I am working on, it is probably worth addressing it. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
