[RFC PATCH net] udp: check sk for UDP GRO fraglist

From: Dongseok Yi
Date: Fri Jan 08 2021 - 08:05:03 EST


It is a workaround patch.

UDP/IP header of UDP GROed frag_skbs are not updated even after NAT
forwarding. Only the header of head_skb from ip_finish_output_gso ->
skb_gso_segment is updated but following frag_skbs are not updated.

A call path skb_mac_gso_segment -> inet_gso_segment ->
udp4_ufo_fragment -> __udp_gso_segment -> __udp_gso_segment_list
does not try to update any UDP/IP header of the segment list.

It might make sense because each skb of frag_skbs is converted to a
list of regular packets. Header update with checksum calculation may
be not needed for UDP GROed frag_skbs.

But UDP GRO frag_list is started from udp_gro_receive, we don't know
whether the skb will be NAT forwarded at that time. For workaround,
try to get sock always when call udp4_gro_receive -> udp_gro_receive
to check if the skb is for local.

I'm still not sure if UDP GRO frag_list is really designed for local
session only. Can kernel support NAT forward for UDP GRO frag_list?
What am I missing?

Fixes: 9fd1ff5d2ac7 (udp: Support UDP fraglist GRO/GSO.)
