net: skip offload for NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM if ipv6 header contains exten…
…sion As documented in skbuff.h, devices with NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM capability can only checksum TCP and UDP over IPv6 if the IP header does not contains extension. This is enforced for UDP packets emitted from user-space to an IPv6 address as they go through ip6_make_skb(), which calls __ip6_append_data() where a check is done on the header size before setting CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. But the introduction of UDP encapsulation with fou6 added a code-path where it is possible to get an skb with a partial UDP checksum and an IPv6 header with extension: * fou6 adds a UDP header with a partial checksum if the inner packet does not contains a valid checksum. * ip6_tunnel adds an IPv6 header with a destination option extension header if encap_limit is non-zero (the default value is 4). The thread linked below describes in more details how to reproduce the problem with GRE-in-UDP tunnel. Add a check on the network header size in skb_csum_hwoffload_help() to make sure no IPv6 packet with extension header is handed to a network device with NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM capability.
