net: llc: reset skb->transport_header
[ Upstream commit a024e377efed31ecfb39210bed562932321345b3 ]
802.2+LLC+SNAP frames received by napi_complete_done with GRO and DSA
have skb->transport_header set two bytes short, or pointing 2 bytes
before network_header & skb->data. As snap_rcv expects transport_header
to point to SNAP header (OID:PID) after LLC processing advances offset
over LLC header (llc_rcv & llc_fixup_skb), code doesn't find a match
and packet is dropped.
Between napi_complete_done and snap_rcv, transport_header is not used
until __netif_receive_skb_core, where originally it was being reset.
Commit fda55eca5a33 ("net: introduce skb_transport_header_was_set()")
only does so if not set, on the assumption the value was set correctly
by GRO (and also on assumption that "network stacks usually reset the
transport header anyway"). Afterwards it is moved forward by
llc_fixup_skb.
Locally generated traffic shows up at __netif_receive_skb_core with no
transport_header set and is processed without issue. On a setup with
GRO but no DSA, transport_header and network_header are both set to
point to skb->data which is also correct.
As issue is LLC specific, to avoid impacting non-LLC traffic, and to
follow up on original assumption made on previous code change,
llc_fixup_skb to reset the offset after skb pull. llc_fixup_skb
assumes the LLC header is at skb->data, and by definition SNAP header
immediately follows.
