Uplink (TX) network data will go through gsm_dlci_data_output_framed there is a bug where if memory allocation fails, the skb which has already been pulled off the list will be lost. In addition TX skbs were being processed in LIFO order Fixed the memory leak, and changed to FIFO order processing Signed-off-by: Russ Gorby <[email protected]> Tested-by: Kappel, LaurentX <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> --- drivers/tty/n_gsm.c | 7 +++++-- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/tty/n_gsm.c +++ b/drivers/tty/n_gsm.c @@ -875,7 +875,7 @@ static int gsm_dlci_data_output_framed(s /* dlci->skb is locked by tx_lock */ if (dlci->skb == NULL) { - dlci->skb = skb_dequeue(&dlci->skb_list); + dlci->skb = skb_dequeue_tail(&dlci->skb_list); if (dlci->skb == NULL) return 0; first = 1; @@ -899,8 +899,11 @@ static int gsm_dlci_data_output_framed(s /* FIXME: need a timer or something to kick this so it can't get stuck with no work outstanding and no buffer free */ - if (msg == NULL) + if (msg == NULL) { + skb_queue_tail(&dlci->skb_list, dlci->skb); + dlci->skb = NULL; return -ENOMEM; + } dp = msg->data; if (dlci->adaption == 4) { /* Interruptible framed (Packetised Data) */ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
