As it says in rfc6951#section-5.5: "When receiving ICMP or ICMPv6 response packets, there might not be enough bytes in the payload to identify the SCTP association that the SCTP packet triggering the ICMP or ICMPv6 packet belongs to. If a received ICMP or ICMPv6 packet cannot be related to a specific SCTP association or the verification tag cannot be verified, it MUST be discarded silently. In particular, this means that the SCTP stack MUST NOT rely on receiving ICMP or ICMPv6 messages. Implementation constraints could prevent processing received ICMP or ICMPv6 messages." ICMP or ICMPv6 packets need to be handled, and this is implemented by udp encap sock .encap_err_lookup function. The .encap_err_lookup function is called in __udp(6)_lib_err_encap() to confirm this path does need to be updated. For sctp, what we can do here is check if the corresponding asoc and transport exist. Note that icmp packet process for sctp over udp is done by udp sock .encap_err_lookup(), and it means for now we can't do as much as sctp_v4/6_err() does. Also we can't do the two mappings mentioned in rfc6951#section-5.5.

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.
