hv_netvsc: Restore needed_headroom request
Commit c0eb454034aa ("hv_netvsc: Don't ask for additional head room in the skb") got rid of needed_headroom setting for the driver. With the change I hit the following issue trying to use ptkgen module: [ 57.522021] kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:1128! [ 57.522021] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC ... [ 58.721068] Call Trace: [ 58.721068] [<ffffffffa0144e86>] netvsc_start_xmit+0x4c6/0x8e0 [hv_netvsc] ... [ 58.721068] [<ffffffffa02f87fc>] ? pktgen_finalize_skb+0x25c/0x2a0 [pktgen] [ 58.721068] [<ffffffff814f5760>] ? __netdev_alloc_skb+0xc0/0x100 [ 58.721068] [<ffffffffa02f9907>] pktgen_thread_worker+0x257/0x1920 [pktgen] Basically, we're calling skb_cow_head(skb, RNDIS_AND_PPI_SIZE) and crash on if (skb_shared(skb)) BUG(); We probably need to restore needed_headroom setting (but shrunk to RNDIS_AND_PPI_SIZE as we don't need more) to request the required headroom space. In theory, it should not give us performance penalty. Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
