From 3174fed9820edc95cff74ad0934c3240c7fb5115 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 9 Dec 2016 08:02:05 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: skb_condense() can also deal with empty skbs It seems attackers can also send UDP packets with no payload at all. skb_condense() can still be a win in this case. It will be possible to replace the custom code in tcp_add_backlog() to get full benefit from skb_condense() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
