Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 06/10] ip6_gre: add drop reasons to the RX path
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 01:15:03 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922221507.3268127-7-littlesmilingcloud@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260922221507.3268127-1-littlesmilingcloud@gmail.com>
Mirror the previous patch on the IPv6 side. So far gre_rcv() reported
the drops below as SKB_DROP_REASON_NOT_SPECIFIED, all from the same
kfree_skb_reason() call. Now it reports:
- SKB_DROP_REASON_GRE_TUNNEL_NOT_FOUND when no tunnel matches,
- SKB_DROP_REASON_HDR_TRUNC when a header is too short,
- what __iptunnel_pull_header_reason() returns when the pull fails,
- SKB_DROP_REASON_NOMEM when the metadata dst cannot be allocated.
Unlike ip_gre, gre_rcv() calls the helper before the tunnel lookup, so a
packet whose ETH_P_TEB inner Ethernet header or WCCPv2 extra word is cut
short is reported as SKB_DROP_REASON_PKT_TOO_SMALL whether a tunnel
matches or not.
Like their IPv4 counterparts, ip6gre_rcv() and ip6erspan_rcv() now
return SKB_NOT_DROPPED_YET where they returned PACKET_RCVD and a drop
reason where they returned PACKET_REJECT. That leaves PACKET_RCVD,
PACKET_REJECT and PACKET_NEXT without users, so remove them.
PACKET_REJECT has the value of SKB_CONSUMED, and a stray one in a
function that now returns a drop reason would build silently and be
traced as a consumed packet.
