Andrea Mayer 834fa0a22f seg6: fix skb checksum evaluation in SRH encapsulation/insertion
[ Upstream commit df8386d13ea280d55beee1b95f61a59234a3798b ]

Support for SRH encapsulation and insertion was introduced with
commit 6c8702c60b ("ipv6: sr: add support for SRH encapsulation and
injection with lwtunnels"), through the seg6_do_srh_encap() and
seg6_do_srh_inline() functions, respectively.
The former encapsulates the packet in an outer IPv6 header along with
the SRH, while the latter inserts the SRH between the IPv6 header and
the payload. Then, the headers are initialized/updated according to the
operating mode (i.e., encap/inline).
Finally, the skb checksum is calculated to reflect the changes applied
to the headers.

The IPv6 payload length ('payload_len') is not initialized
within seg6_do_srh_{inline,encap}() but is deferred in seg6_do_srh(), i.e.
the caller of seg6_do_srh_{inline,encap}().
However, this operation invalidates the skb checksum, since the
'payload_len' is updated only after the checksum is evaluated.

To solve this issue, the initialization of the IPv6 payload length is
moved from seg6_do_srh() directly into the seg6_do_srh_{inline,encap}()
functions and before the skb checksum update takes place.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
