net: Fix OOPS in skb_seq_read().
[ Upstream commit 71b3346d182355f19509fadb8fe45114a35cc499 ] It oopsd for me in skb_seq_read. addr2line said it was linux-2.6/net/core/skbuff.c:2228, which is this line: while (st->frag_idx < skb_shinfo(st->cur_skb)->nr_frags) { I added some printks in there and it looks like we hit this: } else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb && skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) { st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list; st->frag_idx = 0; goto next_skb; } Actually I did some testing and added a few printks and found that the st->cur_skb->data was 0 and hence the ptr used by iscsi_tcp was null. This caused the kernel panic. if (abs_offset < block_limit) { - *data = st->cur_skb->data + abs_offset; + *data = st->cur_skb->data + (abs_offset - st->stepped_offset); I enabled the debug_tcp and with a few printks found that the code did not go to the next_skb label and could find that the sequence being followed was this - It hit this if condition - if (st->cur_skb->next) { st->cur_skb = st->cur_skb->next; st->frag_idx = 0; goto next_skb; And so, now the st pointer is shifted to the next skb whereas actually it should have hit the second else if first since the data is in the frag_list. else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb && skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) { st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list; goto next_skb; } Reversing the two conditions the attached patch fixes the issue for me on top of Herbert's patches.
