This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled netfilter: nf_tables: set transport offset from mac header for netdev/egress to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: netfilter-nf_tables-set-transport-offset-from-mac-he.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 56cc1e9b5b7e464b9e998329d7173330be70efb2 Author: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Dec 14 11:50:12 2023 +0100 netfilter: nf_tables: set transport offset from mac header for netdev/egress [ Upstream commit 0ae8e4cca78781401b17721bfb72718fdf7b4912 ] Before this patch, transport offset (pkt->thoff) provides an offset relative to the network header. This is fine for the inet families because skb->data points to the network header in such case. However, from netdev/egress, skb->data points to the mac header (if available), thus, pkt->thoff is missing the mac header length. Add skb_network_offset() to the transport offset (pkt->thoff) for netdev, so transport header mangling works as expected. Adjust payload fast eval function to use skb->data now that pkt->thoff provides an absolute offset. This explains why users report that matching on egress/netdev works but payload mangling does not. This patch implicitly fixes payload mangling for IPv4 packets in netdev/egress given skb_store_bits() requires an offset from skb->data to reach the transport header. I suspect that nft_exthdr and the trace infra were also broken from netdev/egress because they also take skb->data as start, and pkt->thoff was not correct. Note that IPv6 is fine because ipv6_find_hdr() already provides a transport offset starting from skb->data, which includes skb_network_offset(). The bridge family also uses nft_set_pktinfo_ipv4_validate(), but there skb_network_offset() is zero, so the update in this patch does not alter the existing behaviour.
