Subject: [PATCH v13 nf-next 1/3] netfilter: utils: nf_checksum(_partial) correct data!=networkheader
Date: Fri, 4 Jul 2025 21:11:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250704191135.1815969-2-ericwouds@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250704191135.1815969-1-ericwouds@gmail.com>
In the conntrack hook it may not always be the case that:
skb_network_header(skb) == skb->data.
This is problematic when L4 function nf_conntrack_handle_packet()
is accessing L3 data. This function uses thoff and ip_hdr()
to finds it's data. But it also calculates the checksum.
nf_checksum() and nf_checksum_partial() both use lower skb-checksum
functions that are based on using skb->data.
When skb_network_header(skb) != skb->data, adjust accordingly,
so that the checksum is calculated correctly.
