Also, it is not just the sit tunnel that has this problem. All ipv6 tunnels are affected. I think the easiest is to fix it in _decode_session6(). Could you please try the patch below? Subject: [PATCH] xfrm6: Fix transport header offset in _decode_session6. skb->transport_header might not be valid when we do a reverse decode because the ipv6 tunnel error handlers don't update it to the inner transport header. This leads to a wrong offset calculation and to wrong layer 4 informations. We fix this by using the size of the ipv6 header as the first offset.
