Reproduce environment:
network with 3 VM linuxs is connected as below:
VM1<---->VM2(latest kernel 6.5.0-rc7)<---->VM3
VM1: eth0 ip: 192.168.122.207 MTU 1500
VM2: eth0 ip: 192.168.122.208, eth1 ip: 192.168.123.224 MTU 1500
VM3: eth0 ip: 192.168.123.240 MTU 1500
Reproduce:
VM1 send 1400 bytes UDP data to VM3 using tools scapy with flags=0.
scapy command:
send(IP(dst="192.168.123.240",flags=0)/UDP()/str('0'*1400),count=1,
inter=1.000000)
Result:
Before IP data is sent.

"ForwDatagrams" increase from 4 to 5 and "OutRequests" also increase
from 7 to 8.
Issue description and patch:
IPSTATS_MIB_OUTPKTS("OutRequests") is counted with IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS
("OutOctets") in ip_finish_output2().
According to RFC 4293, it is "OutOctets" counted with "OutTransmits" but
not "OutRequests". "OutRequests" does not include any datagrams counted
in "ForwDatagrams".
ipSystemStatsOutOctets OBJECT-TYPE
DESCRIPTION
"The total number of octets in IP datagrams delivered to the
lower layers for transmission. Octets from datagrams
counted in ipIfStatsOutTransmits MUST be counted here.
ipSystemStatsOutRequests OBJECT-TYPE
DESCRIPTION
"The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user-
protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for
transmission. Note that this counter does not include any
datagrams counted in ipSystemStatsOutForwDatagrams.
So do patch to define IPSTATS_MIB_OUTPKTS to "OutTransmits" and add
IPSTATS_MIB_OUTREQUESTS for "OutRequests".
Add IPSTATS_MIB_OUTREQUESTS counter in __ip_local_out() for ipv4 and add
IPSTATS_MIB_OUT counter in ip6_finish_output2() for ipv6.
Test result with patch:
Before IP data is sent.

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.
