Hi all, Today's linux-next merge of the vhost tree got a conflict in: drivers/vhost/vsock.c between commit: de4eda9de2d9 ("use less confusing names for iov_iter direction initializers") from Linus' tree and commit: 101cf89e8d08 ("virtio/vsock: replace virtio_vsock_pkt with sk_buff") from the vhost tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell diff --cc drivers/vhost/vsock.c index cd6f7776013a,830bc823addc..000000000000 --- a/drivers/vhost/vsock.c +++ b/drivers/vhost/vsock.c @@@ -165,8 -157,9 +157,9 @@@ vhost_transport_do_send_pkt(struct vhos break; } - iov_iter_init(&iov_iter, READ, &vq->iov[out], in, iov_len); + iov_iter_init(&iov_iter, ITER_DEST, &vq->iov[out], in, iov_len); - payload_len = pkt->len - pkt->off; + payload_len = skb->len; + hdr = virtio_vsock_hdr(skb); /* If the packet is greater than the space available in the * buffer, we split it using multiple buffers. @@@ -366,18 -340,21 +340,22 @@@ vhost_vsock_alloc_skb(struct vhost_virt return NULL; } - pkt = kzalloc(sizeof(*pkt), GFP_KERNEL); - if (!pkt) + len = iov_length(vq->iov, out); + + /* len contains both payload and hdr */ + skb = virtio_vsock_alloc_skb(len, GFP_KERNEL); + if (!skb) return NULL; - iov_iter_init(&iov_iter, WRITE, vq->iov, out, len); + len = iov_length(vq->iov, out); + iov_iter_init(&iov_iter, ITER_SOURCE, vq->iov, out, len); - nbytes = copy_from_iter(&pkt->hdr, sizeof(pkt->hdr), &iov_iter); - if (nbytes != sizeof(pkt->hdr)) { + hdr = virtio_vsock_hdr(skb); + nbytes = copy_from_iter(hdr, sizeof(*hdr), &iov_iter); + if (nbytes != sizeof(*hdr)) { vq_err(vq, "Expected %zu bytes for pkt->hdr, got %zu bytes\n", - sizeof(pkt->hdr), nbytes); - kfree(pkt); + sizeof(*hdr), nbytes); + kfree_skb(skb); return NULL; }
