Subject: [RFC][PATCH][IPV4] ip_gre: use skb->{mac,network}_header consistently
Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2007 15:59:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4767D249.5050602@iki.fi> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20071024100842.GA19369@ms2.inr.ac.ru>

From: Timo Teras <timo.teras@iki.fi>

Make both send and receive paths use consistently skb->*_header:
  mac_header = outer IPv4 header
  network_header = encapsulated packet (e.g. inner IPv4 header)

Signed-off-by: Timo Teras <timo.teras@iki.fi>
---
Currently in send path:
  network_header = outer IPv4 header
  transport_header = encapsulated packet
And receive path:
  network_header = encapsulated packet
  mac_header = GRE header

mac_header used to be the outer IPv4 header on receive path, but it was
broken/changed when skb_reset_mac_header() was introduced.

This also makes ipgre_header_parse() work correctly as it assumes that
mac_header points to the outer IPv4 header always. Though, it returns
zeros for outgoing packets that are tcpdumped from gre tunnel without
explicit local address, since the routing is done in ipgre_tunnel_xmit().
