If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 0eaf70a1d10a5291c4eb0c09f8bf1c4a4ecce16e Author: Andrea Mayer <andrea.mayer@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jul 12 19:58:35 2022 +0200 seg6: fix skb checksum evaluation in SRH encapsulation/insertion [ Upstream commit df8386d13ea280d55beee1b95f61a59234a3798b ] Support for SRH encapsulation and insertion was introduced with commit 6c8702c60b88 ("ipv6: sr: add support for SRH encapsulation and injection with lwtunnels"), through the seg6_do_srh_encap() and seg6_do_srh_inline() functions, respectively. The former encapsulates the packet in an outer IPv6 header along with the SRH, while the latter inserts the SRH between the IPv6 header and the payload. Then, the headers are initialized/updated according to the operating mode (i.e., encap/inline). Finally, the skb checksum is calculated to reflect the changes applied to the headers. The IPv6 payload length ('payload_len') is not initialized within seg6_do_srh_{inline,encap}() but is deferred in seg6_do_srh(), i.e. the caller of seg6_do_srh_{inline,encap}(). However, this operation invalidates the skb checksum, since the 'payload_len' is updated only after the checksum is evaluated. To solve this issue, the initialization of the IPv6 payload length is moved from seg6_do_srh() directly into the seg6_do_srh_{inline,encap}() functions and before the skb checksum update takes place.
