mainlining shenanigans
2107d45f17
getsockopt(TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE) has a bug where we read a
user-provided "len" field of type signed int, and then compare the
value to the result of an "offsetofend" operation, which is unsigned.
Negative values provided by the user will be promoted to large
positive numbers; thus checking that len < offsetofend() will return
false when the intention was that it return true.
Note that while len is originally checked for negative values earlier
on in do_tcp_getsockopt(), subsequent calls to get_user() re-read the
value from userspace which may have changed in the meantime.
Therefore, re-add the check for negative values after the call to
get_user in the handler code for TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
