When UDP packets generated locally by a socket with UDP_SEGMENT traverse the following path: UDP tunnel(xmit) -> veth (segmentation) -> veth (gro) -> UDP tunnel (rx) -> UDP socket (no UDP_GRO) ip_summed will be set to CHECKSUM_PARTIAL at creation time and such checksum mode will be preserved in the above path up to the UDP tunnel receive code where we have: __iptunnel_pull_header() -> skb_pull_rcsum() -> skb_postpull_rcsum() -> __skb_postpull_rcsum() The latter will convert the skb to CHECKSUM_NONE. The UDP GSO packet will be later segmented as part of the rx socket receive operation, and will present a CHECKSUM_NONE after segmentation. Additionally the segmented packets UDP CB still refers to the original GSO packet len. Overall that causes unexpected/wrong csum validation errors later in the UDP receive path. We could possibly address the issue with some additional checks and csum mangling in the UDP tunnel code. Since the issue affects only this UDP receive slow path, let's set a suitable csum status there. Note that SKB_GSO_UDP_L4 or SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST packets lacking an UDP encapsulation present a valid checksum when landing to udp_queue_rcv_skb(), as the UDP checksum has been validated by the GRO engine. v2 -> v3: - even more verbose commit message and comments v1 -> v2: - restrict the csum update to the packets strictly needing them - hopefully clarify the commit message and code comments Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
