commit 7e241f647d upstream.
skb_can_coalesce() allows coalescing neighboring slab objects into
a single frag:
return page == skb_frag_page(frag) &&
off == frag->page_offset + skb_frag_size(frag);
ceph_tcp_sendpage() can be handed slab pages. One example of this is
XFS: it passes down sector sized slab objects for its metadata I/O. If
the kernel client is co-located on the OSD node, the skb may go through
loopback and pop on the receive side with the exact same set of frags.
When tcp_recvmsg() attempts to copy out such a frag, hardened usercopy
complains because the size exceeds the object's allocated size:
usercopy: kernel memory exposure attempt detected from ffff9ba917f20a00 (kmalloc-512) (1024 bytes)
Although skb_can_coalesce() could be taught to return false if the
resulting frag would cross a slab object boundary, we already have
a fallback for non-refcounted pages. Utilize it for slab pages too.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
