[PATCH net] net/mlx5e: fix swapped IPv6 IPsec policy masks

From: Andrea Parri <parri.andrea@gmail.com>
Date: 2026-09-17 11:56:18
Also in: linux-rdma, lkml, stable
Subsystem: mellanox ethernet driver (mlx5e), mellanox ethernet innova drivers, mellanox mlx5 core vpi driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Saeed Mahameed, Tariq Toukan, Mark Bloch, Leon Romanovsky, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

IPv6 XFRM policies may use different source and destination prefix
lengths. mlx5e_ipsec_policy_mask() builds the corresponding masks
independently, but setup_fte_addr6() installs each mask in the opposite
address field.

When the prefix lengths differ, this makes the source match use the
destination prefix and the destination match use the source prefix. The
resulting hardware rule can both miss traffic covered by the policy and
match traffic outside it.

Install each mask in its corresponding match field.
