From 23f4ffedb7d751c7e298732ba91ca75d224bc1a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eli Cooper Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2016 23:45:12 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] ip6_tunnel: Clear IP6CB in ip6tunnel_xmit() skb->cb may contain data from previous layers. In the observed scenario, the garbage data were misinterpreted as IP6CB(skb)->frag_max_size, so that small packets sent through the tunnel are mistakenly fragmented. This patch unconditionally clears the control buffer in ip6tunnel_xmit(), which affects ip6_tunnel, ip6_udp_tunnel and ip6_gre. Currently none of these tunnels set IP6CB(skb)->flags, otherwise it needs to be done earlier. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eli Cooper Signed-off-by: David S.
