[PATCH net-next] net: ipv4, ipv6: Fix incorrect skb->data_len caused by __ip_append_data

From: Juntong Deng
Date: Tue Mar 05 2024 - 17:43:28 EST


When __ip_append_data allocate the first skb in the queue, or when the
size of the data in the skb exceed the MTU and require a new fragment
and allocate a new skb, both cause the size of the data increased by
this __ip_append_data to not be added to skb->data_len.

This is because in the current __ip_append_data, skb_put is used when
putting in the data for the new skb, but skb_put only increase skb->len,
but not skb->data_len, resulting in skb->data_len missing this part of
the data size.

All skb processed by __ip_append_data are unable to obtain the accurate
data size based on skb->data_len for the above reason.

Also __ip6_append_data has the same problem.

This patch fixes the bug.
