qemu/rtl8139: Max transmit frame size
Hi:
I noticed a bug in the realloc error checking code in the QEMU backend
for RealTek8139. However, what''s worse is that there is no cap on the
total size of the transmit buffer at all. So a guest can keep extending
it until memory runs out.
CP_TX_BUFFER_SIZE is already 64K. So it seems to me that we don''t need
the while loop to extend the buffer at all since no transmitted packet
should be anywhere near this size.
Are there any objections to getting rid of the following while loop
altogether and replacing it with a straight failure?
Cheers,...
