3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Cong Wang <amw...@redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit da8c87241c26aac81a64c7e4d21d438a33018f4e ]
There are two places to call vlan_set_encap_proto():
vlan_untag() and __pop_vlan_tci().
vlan_untag() assumes skb->data points after mac addr, otherwise
the following code
vhdr = (struct vlan_hdr *) skb->data;
vlan_tci = ntohs(vhdr->h_vlan_TCI);
__vlan_hwaccel_put_tag(skb, vlan_tci);
skb_pull_rcsum(skb, VLAN_HLEN);
won't be correct. But __pop_vlan_tci() assumes points _before_
mac addr.
In vlan_set_encap_proto(), it looks for some magic L2 value
after mac addr:
rawp = skb->data;
if (*(unsigned short *) rawp == 0xFFFF)
...
Therefore __pop_vlan_tci() is obviously wrong.
A quick fix is avoiding using skb->data in vlan_set_encap_proto(),
use 'vhdr+1' is always correct in both cases.
