gso: do not skip outer ip header in case of ipip and net_failover
We encounter a tcp drop issue in our cloud environment. Packet GROed in host forwards to a VM virtio_net nic with net_failover enabled. VM acts as a IPVS LB with ipip encapsulation. The full path like: host gro -> vm virtio_net rx -> net_failover rx -> ipvs fullnat -> ipip encap -> net_failover tx -> virtio_net tx When net_failover transmits a ipip pkt (gso_type = 0x0103, which means SKB_GSO_TCPV4, SKB_GSO_DODGY and SKB_GSO_IPXIP4), there is no gso did because it supports TSO and GSO_IPXIP4. But network_header points to inner ip header. Call Trace: tcp4_gso_segment ------> return NULL inet_gso_segment ------> inner iph, network_header points to ipip_gso_segment inet_gso_segment ------> outer iph skb_mac_gso_segment Afterwards virtio_net transmits the pkt, only inner ip header is modified. And the outer one just keeps unchanged. The pkt will be dropped in remote host. Call Trace: inet_gso_segment ------> inner iph, outer iph is skipped skb_mac_gso_segment __skb_gso_segment validate_xmit_skb validate_xmit_skb_list sch_direct_xmit __qdisc_run __dev_queue_xmit ------> virtio_net dev_hard_start_xmit __dev_queue_xmit ------> net_failover ip_finish_output2 ip_output iptunnel_xmit ip_tunnel_xmit ipip_tunnel_xmit ------> ipip dev_hard_start_xmit __dev_queue_xmit ip_finish_output2 ip_output ip_forward ip_rcv __netif_receive_skb_one_core netif_receive_skb_internal napi_gro_receive receive_buf virtnet_poll net_rx_action The root cause of this issue is specific with the rare combination of SKB_GSO_DODGY and a tunnel device that adds an SKB_GSO_ tunnel option. SKB_GSO_DODGY is set from external virtio_net. We need to reset network header when callbacks.gso_segment() returns NULL. This patch also includes ipv6_gso_segment(), considering SIT, etc. Fixes: cb32f511a70b ("ipip: add GSO/TSO support") Signed-off-by: Tao Liu <thomas.liu@ucloud.cn> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
