vsock/virtio: Fix message iterator handling on transmit path
[Upstream commit 7fb1291257ea1e27dbc3f34c6a37b4d640aafdd7] Commit 6693731487a8 ("vsock/virtio: Allocate nonlinear SKBs for handling large transmit buffers") converted the virtio vsock transmit path to utilise nonlinear SKBs when handling large buffers. As part of this change, virtio_transport_fill_skb() was updated to call skb_copy_datagram_from_iter() instead of memcpy_from_msg() as the latter expects a single destination buffer and cannot handle nonlinear SKBs correctly. Unfortunately, during this conversion, I overlooked the error case when the copying function returns -EFAULT due to a fault on the input buffer in userspace. In this case, memcpy_from_msg() reverts the iterator to its initial state thanks to copy_from_iter_full() whereas skb_copy_datagram_from_iter() leaves the iterator partially advanced. This results in a WARN_ONCE() from the vsock code, which expects the iterator to stay in sync with the number of bytes transmitted so that virtio_transport_send_pkt_info() can return -EFAULT when it is called again: ------------[ cut here ]------------ 'send_pkt()' returns 0, but 65536 expected WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5503 at net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c:428 virtio_transport_send_pkt_info+0xd11/0xf00 net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c:426 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 5503 Comm: syz.0.17 Not tainted 6.16.0-syzkaller-12063-g37816488247d #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2~bpo12+1 04/01/2014 Call virtio_transport_fill_skb_full() to restore the previous iterator behaviour.
