Subject: [PATCH] net: mana: Fix return type of mana_start_xmit
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2022 14:43:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220912214357.928947-1-nhuck@google.com> (raw)
The ndo_start_xmit field in net_device_ops is expected to be of type
netdev_tx_t (*ndo_start_xmit)(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev).
The mismatched return type breaks forward edge kCFI since the underlying
function definition does not match the function hook definition.
The return type of mana_start_xmit should be changed from int to
netdev_tx_t.
