[ Upstream commit cc4665ca646c96181a7c00198aa72c59e0c576e8 ] sctp_transport_pl_hlen() is called to calculate the outer header length for PL. However, as the Figure in rfc8899#section-4.4: Any additional headers .--- MPS -----. | | | v v v +------------------------------+ | IP | ** | PL | protocol data | +------------------------------+ <----- PLPMTU -----> <---------- PMTU --------------> Outer header are IP + Any additional headers, which doesn't include Packetization Layer itself header, namely sctphdr, whereas sctphdr is counted by __sctp_mtu_payload(). The incorrect calculation caused the link pathmtu to be set larger than expected by t->pl.pmtu + sctp_transport_pl_hlen(). This patch is to fix it by subtracting sctphdr len in sctp_transport_pl_hlen().

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.
