The next lines I think make it fine: m->m_len = MIN(m->m_len, len); so we only use what we say is there to land bytes into the mbuf. I'm now not sure though what to do about a few lines later: m_new = vtnet_rx_alloc_buf(sc, nreplace, &m_tail); if (m_new == NULL) { m_prev->m_len = clustersz; return (ENOBUFS); } which likely needs to be adjusted (or the old saved size). I likely didn't see asserts in my testing because I didn't have LRO slow path packets. Do you see other places that would need adjusting? All the other places seem to use m_len correctly on the rx path, but I'm not a nic driver guy, and I might be missing something.
