commit ea64d8d6c675c0bb712689b13810301de9d8f77a upstream. If the UDP header of a local VXLAN endpoint is NAT-ed, and the VXLAN device has disabled UDP checksums and enabled Tx checksum offloading, then the skb passed to udp_manip_pkt() has hdr->check == 0 (outer checksum disabled) and skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (inner packet checksum offloaded). Because of the ->ip_summed value, udp_manip_pkt() tries to update the outer checksum with the new address and port, leading to an invalid checksum sent on the wire, as the original null checksum obviously didn't take the old address and port into account. So, we can't take ->ip_summed into account in udp_manip_pkt(), as it might not refer to the checksum we're acting on. Instead, we can base the decision to update the UDP checksum entirely on the value of hdr->check, because it's null if and only if checksum is disabled: * A fully computed checksum can't be 0, since a 0 checksum is represented by the CSUM_MANGLED_0 value instead. * A partial checksum can't be 0, since the pseudo-header always adds at least one non-zero value (the UDP protocol type 0x11) and adding more values to the sum can't make it wrap to 0 as the carry is then added to the wrapped number. * A disabled checksum uses the special value 0. The problem seems to be there from day one, although it was probably not visible before UDP tunnels were implemented.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
