tun: Use iovec iterators
This patch removes the use of skb_copy_datagram_const_iovec in
favour of the iovec iterator-based skb_copy_datagram_iter.
This commit is in the kernel, and does *not* fix the problem:
commit 8c847d254146d32c86574a1b16923ff91bb784dd
Author: Jason Wang <[email protected]>
Date: Thu Nov 13 16:54:14 2014 +0800
tun: fix issues of iovec iterators using in tun_put_user()
So there's apparently additional issues that Jason didn't address. I
tried to
revert Herbert's patch for testing, but there's at least 5 or 6
other patches
that need reverting first, so I abandoned that unless it becomes
necessary...
What's the best way to proceed?
See another fixes from Herbert, it probably fixes your issue:
