Subject: [PATCH net] fix a braino in cmsghdr_from_user_compat_to_kern()
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2020 19:22:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200727182220.GI794331@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200727161319.GH794331@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>

	commit 547ce4cfb34c ("switch cmsghdr_from_user_compat_to_kern() to
copy_from_user()") missed one of the places where ucmlen should've been
replaced with cmsg.cmsg_len, now that we are fetching the entire struct
rather than doing it field-by-field.

	As the result, compat sendmsg() with several different-sized cmsg
attached started to fail with EINVAL.  Trivial to fix, fortunately.
