Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 3/5] seg6: apply the PSP flavor together with NEXT-C-SID in SRv6 End
Date: Thu,  5 Nov 2026 02:57:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261105015715.57-4-andrea.mayer@uniroma2.it> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261105015715.57-1-andrea.mayer@uniroma2.it>

Since commit bdf3c0b9c10b ("seg6: add PSP flavor support for SRv6 End
behavior"), an SRv6 End route can be set up with both the NEXT-C-SID and
the PSP flavors, e.g.:

  ip -6 route add fcbb:0:100::/48 encap seg6local action End \
          flavors next-csid,psp lblen 32 nflen 16 dev dum0

In RFC 9800, the NEXT-C-SID flavor (NEXT-CSID in the RFC) changes the
End processing only when the Argument is not zero [1]. With a zero
Argument (i.e. when the IPv6 DA carries no further C-SID), End is
processed as in RFC 8986, and the PSP flavor (when set) applies
unchanged [2]. If the packet arrives with Segments Left 1, PSP must
then remove the SRH.

However, on a route with both the NEXT-C-SID and PSP flavors,
input_action_end() always uses the NEXT-C-SID processing. The
NEXT-C-SID processing handles a packet with a zero Argument as End
without flavors, ignoring PSP. Therefore, if this packet arrives with
Segments Left 1, the SRH is not removed.

Fix this by using the NEXT-C-SID processing only when the Argument is
not zero or the route has no RFC 8986 flavor. Otherwise, the packet is
processed as End with its RFC 8986 flavors, in end_flv8986_core(). With
a zero Argument and Segments Left 1, PSP now removes the SRH before the
packet is forwarded. If seg6_pop_srh() cannot remove the SRH, the packet
is dropped, as on a route with the PSP flavor alone.

Found by manual code inspection and reproduced in a VM without kernel
changes or error injection. A following commit adds tests for this case
to srv6_end_flavors_test.sh. The tests reproduce the issue: they fail
without this change and pass with it.
