[PATCH net] net: sched: act_mirred: drop skb's dst_entry in ingress redirection

From: Zhiyuan Hou
Date: Sat Oct 12 2019 - 03:16:41 EST


In act_mirred's ingress redirection, if the skb's dst_entry is valid
when call function netif_receive_skb, the fllowing l3 stack process
(ip_rcv_finish_core) will check dst_entry and skip the routing
decision. Using the old dst_entry is unexpected and may discard the
skb in some case. For example dst->dst_input points to dst_discard.

This patch drops the skb's dst_entry before calling netif_receive_skb
so that the skb can be made routing decision like a normal ingress
skb.
