This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ip_tunnel: clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() in case dst_link_failure() is called to the 3.13-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: ip_tunnel-clear-ipcb-in-ip_tunnel_xmit-in-case-dst_link_failure-is-called.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.13 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 Tue Feb 4 09:16:27 PST 2014 From: Duan Jiong <duanj.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2014 14:00:25 +0800 Subject: ip_tunnel: clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() in case dst_link_failure() is called From: Duan Jiong <duanj.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 11c21a307d79ea5f6b6fc0d3dfdeda271e5e65f6 ] commit a622260254ee48("ip_tunnel: fix kernel panic with icmp_dest_unreach") clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() , or else skb->cb[] may contain garbage from GSO segmentation layer. But commit 0e6fbc5b6c621("ip_tunnels: extend iptunnel_xmit()") refactor codes, and it clear IPCB behind the dst_link_failure(). So clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() just like commti a622260254ee48("ip_tunnel: fix kernel panic with icmp_dest_unreach"). Signed-off-by: Duan Jiong <duanj.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
