[PATCH 5.4 38/85] xfrmi: drop ignore_df check before updating pmtu

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 12 2020 - 09:57:56 EST


From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 45a36a18d01907710bad5258d81f76c18882ad88 upstream.

xfrm interfaces currently test for !skb->ignore_df when deciding
whether to update the pmtu on the skb's dst. Because of this, no pmtu
exception is created when we do something like:

ping -s 1438 <dest>

By dropping this check, the pmtu exception will be created and the
next ping attempt will work.
