This commit aligns with RFC 4301, Section 6, and addresses the
requirement to forward unauthenticated ICMP error messages that do not
match any xfrm policies. It utilizes the ICMP payload as an skb and
performs a reverse lookup. If a policy match is found, forward
the packet.
The ICMP payload typically contains a partial IP packet that is likely
responsible for the error message.
The following error types will be forwarded:
- IPv4 ICMP error types: ICMP_DEST_UNREACH & ICMP_TIME_EXCEEDED
- IPv6 ICMPv6 error types: ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH, ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG,
ICMPV6_TIME_EXCEED
To implement this feature, a reverse lookup has been added to the xfrm
forward path, making use of the ICMP payload as the skb.
To enable this functionality from user space, the XFRM_POLICY_ICMP flag
should be added to the outgoing and forward policies, and the
XFRM_STATE_ICMP flag should be set on incoming states.
e.g.
ip xfrm policy add flag icmp tmpl
ip xfrm policy
src 192.0.2.0/24 dst 192.0.1.0/25
dir out priority 2084302 ptype main flag icmp
ip xfrm state add ...flag icmp
ip xfrm state
root@west:~#ip x s
src 192.1.2.23 dst 192.1.2.45
proto esp spi 0xa7b76872 reqid 16389 mode tunnel
replay-window 32 flag icmp af-unspec
Changes since v5:
- fix return values bool->int, feedback from Steffen
Changes since v4:
- split the series to only ICMP erorr forwarding
Changes since v3: no code chage
- add missing white spaces detected by checkpatch.pl
Changes since v2: reviewed by Steffen Klassert
- user consume_skb instead of kfree_skb for the inner skb
- fixed newskb leaks in error paths
- free the newskb once inner flow is decoded with change due to

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.
