Subject: [Cake] [PATCH net v2] gso_segment: Reset skb->mac_len after modifying network header
Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2018 16:43:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180913144306.9077-1-toke@toke.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <153670437243.12756.693381878569982309.stgit@alrua-kau>

When splitting a GSO segment that consists of encapsulated packets, the
skb->mac_len of the segments can end up being set wrong, causing packet
drops in particular when using act_mirred and ifb interfaces in
combination with a qdisc that splits GSO packets.

This happens because at the time skb_segment() is called, network_header
will point to the inner header, throwing off the calculation in
skb_reset_mac_len(). The network_header is subsequently adjust by the
outer IP gso_segment handlers, but they don't set the mac_len.

Fix this by adding skb_reset_mac_len() calls to both the IPv4 and IPv6
gso_segment handlers, after they modify the network_header.

Many thanks to Eric Dumazet for his help in identifying the cause of
the bug.
