Alexander Potapenko 86f4c90a1c ipv4, ipv6: ensure raw socket message is big enough to hold an IP header
raw_send_hdrinc() and rawv6_send_hdrinc() expect that the buffer copied
from the userspace contains the IPv4/IPv6 header, so if too few bytes are
copied, parts of the header may remain uninitialized.

This bug has been detected with KMSAN.

For the record, the KMSAN report:

, triggered by the following syscalls:
  socket(PF_INET6, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_RAW) = 3
  sendto(3, NULL, 0, 0, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(0), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "ff00::", &sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, 28) = -1 EPERM

A similar report is triggered in net/ipv4/raw.c if we use a PF_INET socket
instead of a PF_INET6 one.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
