were getting corrupted. In the process I found three bugs. One was the
culprit, but the other two scared me. After deeper investigation, they
were not as major as I thought they were, due to a signed compared to
an unsigned that prevented a negative number from doing actual harm.
The two bigger bugs:
- Mask the ring buffer data page length. There are data flags at the
high bits of the length field. These were not cleared via the
length function, and the length could return a negative number.
(Although the number returned was unsigned, but was assigned to a
signed number) Luckily, this value was compared to PAGE_SIZE which is
unsigned and kept it from entering the path that could have caused damage.
- Check the page usage before reusing the ring buffer reader page.
TCP increments the page ref when passing the page off to the network.
The page is passed back to the ring buffer for use on free. But
the page could still be in use by the TCP stack.
Minor bugs:
- Related to the first bug. No need to clear out the unused ring buffer
data before sending to user space. It is now done by the ring buffer
code itself.
- Reset pointers after free on error path. There were some cases in
the error path that pointers were freed but not set to NULL, and could
have them freed again, having a pointer freed twice.
