Christoph Paasch reports [1] about incorrect skb->truesize after skb_expand_head() call in ip6_xmit. This may happen because of two reasons: - skb_set_owner_w() for newly cloned skb is called too early, before pskb_expand_head() where truesize is adjusted for (!skb-sk) case. - pskb_expand_head() does not adjust truesize in (skb->sk) case. In this case sk->sk_wmem_alloc should be adjusted too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
