Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 1/2] amt: mark relay data as a UDP tunnel packet before sending it
Date: Sun,  4 Oct 2026 19:11:59 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261004161200.27196-2-omar@blockcast.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261004161200.27196-1-omar@blockcast.net>

amt_send_multicast_data() encapsulates the multicast packet in
AMT + UDP + IP headers, but unlike other UDP tunnels it never calls
udp_tunnel_handle_offloads().

If tx checksum offload is enabled on the amt device (off by default),
GSO packets (e.g. from a UDP_SEGMENT sender) reach amt_dev_xmit()
unsegmented. They are then sent with neither skb->encapsulation nor
SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM set, and the lower device drops them:
__udp_gso_segment() fails because csum_start does not match the
(outer) transport header.

Call udp_tunnel_handle_offloads(skb, true), as other UDP tunnels do.
udp_csum is true because udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() is called with
nocheck == false.

Also reset the mac header of the copy before recording the inner
headers. amt_dev_xmit() pulled the Ethernet header without moving
mac_header, so inner_mac_header would point 14 bytes before the
inner IP header. That makes tnl_hlen negative in
__skb_udp_tunnel_segment().

Notes (v3):
    Found by an LLM-assisted review of drivers/net/amt.c. Reproduced with
    the selftest in patch 2 (x86_64 KVM guest, CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y), tx
    offload on, UDP_SEGMENT bursts of 8 x 1200 + 100 bytes, IPv4 and IPv6
    inner traffic, 40 runs per kernel on net-next eb0c18404c89 and 20 with
    this version of the selftest on 071876fd5048:
    
     - before: 0 of 900 datagrams delivered and tx_dropped +100 on the
       relay's egress device, in every case
     - after: 900 of 900 delivered, no drops and no UDP checksum errors at
       the gateway, in every case
     - with only the skb_reset_mac_header() call removed (two runs, an
       earlier version of the selftest), the packets are still dropped and
       DEBUG_NET warns in skb_udp_tunnel_segment()
     - tx offload off, and non-GSO datagrams with it on, work before and
       after; amt.sh passes with the patch
    
    Not tested here: hardware UDP tunnel segmentation offload, hardware
    checksumming of a non-GSO CHECKSUM_PARTIAL packet (it now leaves amt
    with skb->encapsulation set, as with other UDP tunnels; the selftest's
    egress device has tx offload off), a forwarded GRO packet as the GSO
    source, KASAN (the netdev CI's debug kernel ran v1), sparse, udp_csum ==
    false, and amt.sh on the unpatched kernel.
