Subject: [PATCH v3 0/8] ip_frag: fix reassembly defects and add test
Date: Wed,  1 Jul 2026 09:20:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701162127.207318-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260616210656.464062-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

The IP reassembly library tracks only a running byte total and reserved
slots for the first and last fragments, with no coverage map. As a result
it mishandles duplicate, overlapping, oversized, and misheadered
fragments, and the IPv4 key is missing a field RFC 791 requires. There
was also no functional test to catch any of it.

These came out of reviewing a duplicate-fragment report on the list.

Patches 1 and 2 are interdependent: the overlap discard relies on the
duplicate handling so an exact duplicate is dropped on its own rather
than discarding the whole datagram. The rest are independent.

Patch 6 adds a functional test modeled on the Linux selftest ip_defrag.c.
It passes on this series; with any single fix reverted the matching case
fails.

v3 - drop stable from one patch and reword release note

Stephen Hemminger (8):
  ip_frag: tolerate duplicate fragments
  ip_frag: discard datagrams with overlapping fragments
  ip_frag: include protocol in IPv4 reassembly key
  ip_frag: drop IPv6 fragments with per-fragment headers
  ip_frag: reject oversized reassembled datagrams
  app/test: add test for IP reassembly
  ip_frag: remove use of rte_memcpy
  doc: add release note about ip_frag changes
