The previous commit fixed handling of incomplete packets but broke error handling: offsetof returns an unsigned value (size_t), but when compared against the signed return value, the return value is interpreted as if it were unsigned, so negative return values are never less than the offset. To make the code easier to read, calculate the minimal packet length once and separately, and assign it to a signed int variable to eliminate unsigned math and the need for type casts. It then becomes immediately obvious how the actual data length is calculated and why the return value cannot be less than the minimal length. Fixes: |

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.
