[ Upstream commit 950271d7cc0b4546af3549d8143c4132d6e1f138 ] Currently the tun_napi_alloc_frags() function returns -ENOMEM when the number of iovs exceeds MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1. However this is inappropriate, we should use -EMSGSIZE instead of -ENOMEM. The following distinctions are matters: 1. the caller need to drop the bad packet when -EMSGSIZE is returned, which means meeting a persistent failure. 2. the caller can try again when -ENOMEM is returned, which means meeting a transient failure.

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.
