Could you try to check (with e.g. nstat) if any of the following counters
change if the icmp messages hit the host?

TcpExtOutOfWindowIcmps
Icmp6InErrors
TcpExtTCPMinTTLDrop
TcpExtListenDrops
Hi,

I am now seeing the same problem against a 3.9.0 machine (that I've never had
problems with before). I looked through the four nstat counters, and none of
them are increasing. Here's /proc/net/ipv6_route from the server while it's
going on; the client is 2001:67c:a4:1:71f9:c84b:8b2a:c65b (second line) and
the server is 2001:67c:29f4::2007.
I am not sure, but the skb_is_gso() checks seem too lazy.

Why don't we check that gso_size+headers is below mtu, I dont know.
Was this intended for the UFO gso thread? ;)
