Guillaume Nault 02612bb05e pppoe: take ->needed_headroom of lower device into account on xmit
In pppoe_sendmsg(), reserving dev->hard_header_len bytes of headroom
was probably fine before the introduction of ->needed_headroom in
commit f5184d267c ("net: Allow netdevices to specify needed head/tailroom").

But now, virtual devices typically advertise the size of their overhead
in dev->needed_headroom, so we must also take it into account in
skb_reserve().
Allocation size of skb is also updated to take dev->needed_tailroom
into account and replace the arbitrary 32 bytes with the real size of
a PPPoE header.

This issue was discovered by syzbot, who connected a pppoe socket to a
gre device which had dev->header_ops->create == ipgre_header and
dev->hard_header_len == 0. Therefore, PPPoE didn't reserve any
headroom, and dev_hard_header() crashed when ipgre_header() tried to
prepend its header to skb->data.

Admittedly PPPoE shouldn't be allowed to run on non Ethernet-like
interfaces, but reserving space for ->needed_headroom is a more
fundamental issue that needs to be addressed first.

Same problem exists for __pppoe_xmit(), which also needs to take
dev->needed_headroom into account in skb_cow_head().

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
