Unfortunately, it does so with the delta between the extant headroom and the header length, which may be negative if there is already sufficient headroom. pskb_expand_head() does allow for size being 0, in which case it just copies, so clamp the header delta to zero. Opening Chrome (and all my tabs) on a PCIE device was enough to reliably hit this.

Thanks for the quick response Arend. It's not quite as simple as the form you suggested, since both hdrlen and skb_headroom() are unsigned, so it needs need an explicit cast to signed, which was previously implicit from the head_delta lvalue. diff --git a/drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/core.c b/drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/core.c index 2153e8062b4c..0b7db8798214 100644 --- a/drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/core.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/core.c @@ -214,7 +214,7 @@ static netdev_tx_t brcmf_netdev_start_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, /* Make sure there's enough writeable headroom */ if (skb_headroom(skb) < drvr->hdrlen || skb_header_cloned(skb)) { - head_delta = drvr->hdrlen - skb_headroom(skb); + head_delta = max((int) (drvr->hdrlen - skb_headroom(skb)), 0); brcmf_dbg(INFO, "%s: insufficient headroom (%d)\n", brcmf_ifname(ifp), head_delta); -- 2.13.2
