Subject: [PATCH] net: 6lowpan: fix lowpan_header_create non-compression memcpy
call
In function lowpan_header_create(), we invoke the following code
construct:
struct ipv6hdr *hdr;
...
hdr = ipv6_hdr(skb);
...
if (...)
memcpy(hc06_ptr + 1, &hdr->flow_lbl[1], 2);
else
memcpy(hc06_ptr, &hdr, 4);
Where the else path of the condition, that is, non-compression
path, calls memcpy() with a pointer to struct ipv6hdr *hdr as
source, thus two levels of indirection. This cannot be correct,
and likely only one level of pointer was intended as source
buffer for memcpy() here.
