commit 64235eabc4b5b18c507c08a1f16cdac6c5661220 upstream.
GRO has a fundamental issue with UDP tunnel packets as it can't detect
those in a foolproof way and GRO could happen before they reach the
tunnel endpoint. Previous commits have fixed issues when UDP tunnel
packets come from a remote host, but if those packets are issued locally
they could run into checksum issues.
If the inner packet has a partial checksum the information will be lost
in the GRO logic, either in udp4/6_gro_complete or in
udp_gro_complete_segment and packets will have an invalid checksum when
leaving the host.
Prevent local UDP tunnel packets from ever being GROed at the outer UDP
level.
Due to skb->encapsulation being wrongly used in some drivers this is
actually only preventing UDP tunnel packets with a partial checksum to
be GROed (see iptunnel_handle_offloads) but those were also the packets
triggering issues so in practice this should be sufficient.
Fixes: 9fd1ff5d2ac7 ("udp: Support UDP fraglist GRO/GSO.")
Fixes: 36707061d6ba ("udp: allow forwarding of plain (non-fraglisted) UDP GRO packets")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
