[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v3 5/5] ms/tunnels: Drop stale dst when building an ICMP error for PMTUD

[Konstantin Khorenko <khorenko@virtuozzo.com>]

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com>

Bridged UDP tunnels such as VXLAN and GENEVE build an ICMP error packet
around an overlay packet if the packet is going to exceed the underlay
path MTU. The ICMP error packet is then injected back into the Rx path
with the source and destination addresses swapped, so that it will be
delivered to the overlay source.

If the overlay packet was routed to the UDP tunnel or locally generated,
then it is already carrying a valid dst entry and this entry is not
dropped when transforming the packet to an ICMP error packet. This
causes the IP layer to reuse the dst entry, leading to the ICMP error
packet being dropped or routed out of the UDP tunnel interface in case
of forwarding.

Prior to the blamed commit this could not happen, as
skb_tunnel_check_pmtu() did not build ICMP errors for PACKET_HOST
packets. Such packets were instead encapsulated and, unless the DF bit
was set in the outer header, fragmented by the underlay.

Fix this by making sure that the ICMP error packet does not have a valid
dst entry, thereby forcing the IP layer to perform a route lookup.

Adjust the bridged PMTU exception selftests accordingly. When the
local sender in ns_a pings the overlay destination with a deadline
(-w), ping exits on the first socket error before any reply is
received and returns a non-zero exit code. The test therefore only
passed because the ICMP error was never delivered. Use a packet count
(-c) like the ns_c line above it, so that the ICMP error counts
against the packet budget and the exit code depends on whether echo
replies were received. This passes with and without the fix.
