When sending a fragmented UDP packet. With these patches, the IPVS stack will no longer see the fragmented packets, but instead see one large SKB. This will trigger a MTU path check in e.g. ip_vs_dr_xmit_v6() and an ICMPv6 too big packet is send back. IPVS: ip_vs_dr_xmit_v6(): frag needed Perhaps we could change/fix the MTU check in IPVS? (This would also solve issues I've seen with TSO/GSO frames, hitting this code path). -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Sr. Network Kernel Developer at Red Hat Author of http://www.iptv-analyzer.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
