Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: stmmac: fix TSO DMA API usage causing oops<br />
<br />
Commit 66600fac7a98 ("net: stmmac: TSO: Fix unbalanced DMA map/unmap<br />
for non-paged SKB data") moved the assignment of tx_skbuff_dma[]&#39;s<br />
members to be later in stmmac_tso_xmit().<br />
<br />
The buf (dma cookie) and len stored in this structure are passed to<br />
dma_unmap_single() by stmmac_tx_clean(). The DMA API requires that<br />
the dma cookie passed to dma_unmap_single() is the same as the value<br />
returned from dma_map_single(). However, by moving the assignment<br />
later, this is not the case when priv->dma_cap.addr64 > 32 as "des"<br />
is offset by proto_hdr_len.<br />
<br />
This causes problems such as:<br />
<br />
dwc-eth-dwmac 2490000.ethernet eth0: Tx DMA map failed<br />
<br />
and with DMA_API_DEBUG enabled:<br />
<br />
DMA-API: dwc-eth-dwmac 2490000.ethernet: device driver tries to +free DMA memory it has not allocated [device address=0x000000ffffcf65c0] [size=66 bytes]<br />
<br />
Fix this by maintaining "des" as the original DMA cookie, and use<br />
tso_des to pass the offset DMA cookie to stmmac_tso_allocator().<br />
