Orabug: 20902628 When an ldc control-only packet is received during data exchange in read_nonraw(), a new rx head is calculated but the rx queue head is not actually advanced (rx_set_head() is not called) and a branch is taken to 'no_data' at which point two things can happen depending on the value of the newly calculated rx head and the current rx tail: - If the rx queue is determined to be not empty, then the wrong packet is picked up. - If the rx queue is determined to be empty, then a read error (EAGAIN) is eventually returned since it is falsely assumed that more data was expected. The fix is to update the rx head and return in case of a control only packet during data exchange.

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.
