Subject: vxlan: Possible regression in vxlan_rcv()
Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2021 18:13:26 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1ad77777.15fd.17d4dc9bd96.Webtop.157@skynet.be> (raw)
Hi,
Last year I sent the following
2ae2904b5bac
("vxlan: don't collect metadata if remote checksum is wrong")
thinking it was an optimization and noticed it was managed in that order
before patch
f14ecebb3a4e
("vxlan: clean up extension handling on rx")
I was not able to create some script to test that code and had no
feedback on it but lately, looking at it again I noticed that metadata
sequence (if (vxlan_collect_metadata(vs))) was updating skb in
skb_dst_set(skb, (struct dst_entry *)tun_dst); which was not the case
during the clean up above.
Can someone tell me if the update is really ok or how I could check
that code ?
if VXLAN_F_REMCSUM_RX involves metadata checking I can ask to remove the
patch.
Best regards,
Fabian
