Hi Eri, Thanks for your suggestion, u8 may not enough when the packet have a lot of exthdr. I will update the patch in v2, by the way update Report-by tag. On 2019/3/30 15:57, Eric Dumazet wrote:

From: Junwei Hu <redacted> At the beginning of ip6_fragment func, the prevhdr pointer is obtained in the ip6_find_1stfragopt func. However, all the pointers pointing into skb header may change when calling skb_checksum_help func with skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_PARTIAL condition. The prevhdr pointe will be dangling if it is not reloaded after calling __skb_linearize func in skb_checksum_help func. Here, I add a variable, nexthdr_offset, to evaluate the offset, which does not changes even after calling __skb_linearize func....quoted
