When using jumbo packets and overrunning rx queue with napi enabled, the following sequence is observed in gfar_add_rx_frag: | lstatus | | skb | t | lstatus, size, flags | first | len, data_len, *ptr | ---+--------------------------------------+-------+-----------------------+ 13 | 18002348, 9032, INTERRUPT LAST | 0 | 9600, 8000, f554c12e | 12 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 8000, 6400, f554c12e | 11 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 6400, 4800, f554c12e | 10 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 4800, 3200, f554c12e | 09 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 3200, 1600, f554c12e | 08 | 14000640, 1600, INTERRUPT FIRST | 0 | 1600, 0, f554c12e | 07 | 14000640, 1600, INTERRUPT FIRST | 1 | 0, 0, f554c12e | 06 | 1c000080, 128, INTERRUPT LAST FIRST | 1 | 0, 0, abf3bd6e | 05 | 18002348, 9032, INTERRUPT LAST | 0 | 8000, 6400, c5a57780 | 04 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 6400, 4800, c5a57780 | 03 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 4800, 3200, c5a57780 | 02 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 3200, 1600, c5a57780 | 01 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT | 0 | 1600, 0, c5a57780 | 00 | 14000640, 1600, INTERRUPT FIRST | 1 | 0, 0, c5a57780 | So at t=7 a new packets is started but not finished, probably due to rx overrun - but rx overrun is not indicated in the flags. Instead a new packets starts at t=8. This results in skb->len to exceed size for the LAST fragment at t=13 and thus a negative fragment size added to the skb. This then crashes: kernel BUG at include/linux/skbuff.h:2277! Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1] ...

In order to prevent the newer rx frame from getting corrupted, the FIRST flag is checked to discard the incomplete older frame.

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.
