Either of pskb_pull() or pskb_trim() may fail under low memory conditions. If rds_tcp_data_recv() ignores such failures, the application will receive corrupted data because the skb has not been correctly carved to the RDS datagram size. Avoid this by handling pskb_pull/pskb_trim failure in the same manner as the skb_clone failure: bail out of rds_tcp_data_recv(), and retry via the deferred call to rds_send_worker() that gets set up on ENOMEM from rds_tcp_read_sock() Signed-off-by: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varad...@oracle.com> ---
Good one. Probably we should get this fix in stable versions as well. It seems to be applicable for all v2.6.32+ stable versions.
