The blamed commit added support for Rx copybreak. This meant that for certain frame sizes, a new skb was allocated and the initial data buffer was recycled. Instead of waiting to recycle the Rx buffer only after all processing was done on it (like accessing the parse results or timestamp information), the code path just went ahead and re-used the buffer right away. This sometimes lead to corrupted HW and SW annotation areas. Fix this by delaying the moment when the buffer is recycled.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
