Subject: [PATCH net-next 06/15] netfilter: flowtable: refactor MTU check for tunnel offload
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 23:59:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261011215953.1334630-7-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261011215953.1334630-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

From: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@oss.qualcomm.com>

Introduce nf_flow_offload_check_mtu() helper and use the encapsulated
protocol (tun.encap_proto) to compute the tunnel overhead instead of
relying on tun_num, so the correct inner header size (IPv4 vs IPv6) is
accounted for. Use it in both the IPv4 and IPv6 forward paths.
This is a preliminary patch to support IPv4 over IPv6 and SIT flowtable
tunnel offload.
Please note IPv4 over IPv6 and SIT tunnel flowtable offloading is not
enabled yet.
