[PATCH 5.19 192/365] netfilter: nf_ct_sane: remove pseudo skb linearization

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 23 2022 - 04:58:09 EST


From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a664375da76c6da8f83dc7997e43c568e1eb9a6a upstream.

For historical reason this code performs pseudo linearization of skbs
via skb_header_pointer and a global 64k buffer.

With arrival of BIG TCP, packets generated by TCP stack can exceed 64kb.

Rewrite this to only extract the needed header data. This also allows
to get rid of the locking.

Fixes: 7c4e983c4f3c ("net: allow gso_max_size to exceed 65536")
Fixes: 0fe79f28bfaf ("net: allow gro_max_size to exceed 65536")
