Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix radiotap header generation
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
In commit 8c89f7b3d3f2 ("mac80211: Use flex-array for radiotap header
 | 
			
		||||
bitmap") we accidentally pointed the position to the wrong place, so
 | 
			
		||||
we overwrite a present bitmap, and thus cause all kinds of trouble.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
To see the issue, note that the previous code read:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  pos = (void *)(it_present + 1);
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The requirement now is that we need to calculate pos via it_optional,
 | 
			
		||||
to not trigger the compiler hardening checks, as:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  pos = (void *)&rthdr->it_optional[...];
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Rewriting the original expression, we get (obviously, since that just
 | 
			
		||||
adds "+ x - x" terms):
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  pos = (void *)(it_present + 1 + rthdr->it_optional - rthdr->it_optional)
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
and moving the "+ rthdr->it_optional" outside to be used as an array:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  pos = (void *)&rthdr->it_optional[it_present + 1 - rthdr->it_optional];
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The original is off by one, fix it.
