Subject: relay: fix for possible loss/corruption of produced subbufs
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2c53d9109f077900e140edb8b766132ad93b81cc;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

relay: fix for possible loss/corruption of produced subbufs

Fix possible loss/corruption of produced subbufs in
relay_subbufs_consumed().

When buf->subbufs_produced wraps around after UINT_MAX and
buf->subbufs_consumed is still < UINT_MAX, the condition

	if (buf->subbufs_consumed > buf->subbufs_produced)

will be true even for certain valid values of subbufs_consumed.  This may
lead to loss or corruption of produced subbufs.
