I looked at some of these macros and am wondering why SKB_TRUESIZE() uses SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct sk_buff)). Because I don't understand how the memcaches that allocate sk_buff are aligned or somehow always return SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct sk_buff)) sized objects -- a simple BUG_ON(ksize(skb) != SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct sk_buff))) triggers. Alas, doing something like: --- a/include/linux/skbuff.h +++ b/include/linux/skbuff.h @@ -235,7 +235,7 @@ /* return minimum truesize of one skb containing X bytes of data */ #define SKB_TRUESIZE(X) ((X) + \ - SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct sk_buff)) + \ + sizeof(struct sk_buff) + \ SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info))) does not fix the problem. Still trying to debug, because I don't want this to block the SLUB enablement of KFENCE, even if it turns out it's not KFENCE. :-/ Thanks, -- Marco
