[PATCH net-next 0/2] net: permit skb_segment on head_frag frag_list skb
From: Yonghong Song <hidden>
Date: 2018-03-20 05:16:22
One of our in-house projects, bpf-based NAT, hits a kernel BUG_ON at
function skb_segment(), line 3667. The bpf program attaches to
clsact ingress, calls bpf_skb_change_proto to change protocol
from ipv4 to ipv6 or from ipv6 to ipv4, and then calls bpf_redirect
to send the changed packet out.
...
3665 while (pos < offset + len) {
3666 if (i >= nfrags) {
3667 BUG_ON(skb_headlen(list_skb));
...
The triggering input skb has the following properties:
list_skb = skb->frag_list;
skb->nfrags != NULL && skb_headlen(list_skb) != 0
and skb_segment() is not able to handle a frag_list skb
if its headlen (list_skb->len - list_skb->data_len) is not 0.
Patch #1 provides a simple solution to avoid BUG_ON. If
list_skb->head_frag is true, its page-backed frag will
be processed before the list_skb->frags.
Patch #2 provides a test case in test_bpf module which
constructs a skb and calls skb_segment() directly. The test
case is able to trigger the BUG_ON without Patch #1.
