net: ipv6: fix dif and sdif mismatch in raw6_icmp_error

2026-08-03T09:15:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 440e274da4d1b93c7df2cb0ce893c3009dd4db55 ] In raw6_icmp_error(), raw_v6_match() is called with inet6_iif(skb) passed to both the 'dif' and 'sdif' arguments. This is a copy-paste or typo error, as the last argument should represent the secondary interface index (sdif). This mismatch breaks ICMPv6 error handling for IPv6 raw sockets in VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding) environments. When a raw socket is bound to a VRF master device, raw_v6_match() fails to find a match because it is not given the correct sdif value, causing the socket to miss relevant ICMPv6 error notifications. Fix this by properly passing inet6_sdif(skb) as the last argument to raw_v6_match().

ipv6: np->rxpmtu race annotation

2025-11-24T09:29:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9fba1eb39e2f74d2002c5cbcf1d4435d37a4f752 ] Add READ_ONCE() annotations because np->rxpmtu can be changed while udpv6_recvmsg() and rawv6_recvmsg() read it. Since this is a very rarely used feature, and that udpv6_recvmsg() and rawv6_recvmsg() read np->rxopt anyway, change the test order so that np->rxpmtu does not need to be in a hot cache line.

ipv6: remove hard coded limitation on ipv6_pinfo

2023-07-24T08:39:31+00:00

IPv6 inet sockets are supposed to have a "struct ipv6_pinfo" field at the end of their definition, so that inet6_sk_generic() can derive from socket size the offset of the "struct ipv6_pinfo". This is very fragile, and prevents adding bigger alignment in sockets, because inet6_sk_generic() does not work if the compiler adds padding after the ipv6_pinfo component. We are currently working on a patch series to reorganize TCP structures for better data locality and found issues similar to the one fixed in commit f5d547676ca0 ("tcp: fix tcp_inet6_sk() for 32bit kernels") Alternative would be to force an alignment on "struct ipv6_pinfo", greater or equal to __alignof__(any ipv6 sock) to ensure there is no padding. This does not look great. v2: fix typo in mptcp_proto_v6_init() (Paolo) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Chao Wu Cc: Wei Wang Cc: Coco Li Cc: YiFei Zhu Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Signed-off-by: David S.
