udp: prevent local UDP tunnel packets from being GROed
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 64235ea upstream.

GRO has a fundamental issue with UDP tunnel packets as it can't detect
those in a foolproof way and GRO could happen before they reach the
tunnel endpoint. Previous commits have fixed issues when UDP tunnel
packets come from a remote host, but if those packets are issued locally
they could run into checksum issues.

If the inner packet has a partial checksum the information will be lost
in the GRO logic, either in udp4/6_gro_complete or in
udp_gro_complete_segment and packets will have an invalid checksum when
leaving the host.

Prevent local UDP tunnel packets from ever being GROed at the outer UDP
level.

Due to skb->encapsulation being wrongly used in some drivers this is
actually only preventing UDP tunnel packets with a partial checksum to
be GROed (see iptunnel_handle_offloads) but those were also the packets
triggering issues so in practice this should be sufficient.

Fixes: 9fd1ff5 ("udp: Support UDP fraglist GRO/GSO.")
Fixes: 3670706 ("udp: allow forwarding of plain (non-fraglisted) UDP GRO packets")
