Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: take care of mixed splice()/sendmsg(MSG_ZEROCOPY) case
syzbot found that mixing sendpage() and sendmsg(MSG_ZEROCOPY)
calls over the same TCP socket would again trigger the
infamous warning in inet_sock_destruct()
WARN_ON(sk_forward_alloc_get(sk));
While Talal took into account a mix of regular copied data
and MSG_ZEROCOPY one in the same skb, the sendpage() path
has been forgotten.
We want the charging to happen for sendpage(), because
pages could be coming from a pipe. What is missing is the
downgrading of pure zerocopy status to make sure
sk_forward_alloc will stay synced.
Add tcp_downgrade_zcopy_pure() helper so that we can
use it from the two callers.
