This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled gso: fix payload length when gso_size is zero to the 4.9-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: gso-fix-payload-length-when-gso_size-is-zero.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Wed Nov 15 17:24:03 CET 2017 From: Alexey Kodanev <alexey.kodanev@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2017 19:02:35 +0300 Subject: gso: fix payload length when gso_size is zero From: Alexey Kodanev <alexey.kodanev@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3d0241d57c7b25bb75ac9d7a62753642264fdbce ] When gso_size reset to zero for the tail segment in skb_segment(), later in ipv6_gso_segment(), __skb_udp_tunnel_segment() and gre_gso_segment() we will get incorrect results (payload length, pcsum) for that segment. inet_gso_segment() already has a check for gso_size before calculating payload. The issue was found with LTP vxlan & gre tests over ixgbe NIC.
