af_packet: fix raw sockets over 6in4 tunnel
Since commit cb9f1b783850, scapy (which uses an AF_PACKET socket in SOCK_RAW mode) is unable to send a basic icmp packet over a sit tunnel: Here is a example of the setup: $ ip link set ntfp2 up $ ip addr add 10.125.0.1/24 dev ntfp2 $ ip tunnel add tun1 mode sit ttl 64 local 10.125.0.1 remote 10.125.0.2 dev ntfp2 $ ip addr add fd00:cafe:cafe::1/128 dev tun1 $ ip link set dev tun1 up $ ip route add fd00:200::/64 dev tun1 $ scapy >>> p = [] >>> p += IPv6(src='fd00:100::1', dst='fd00:200::1')/ICMPv6EchoRequest() >>> send(p, count=1, inter=0.1) >>> quit() $ ip -s link ls dev tun1 | grep -A1 "TX.*errors" TX: bytes packets errors dropped carrier collsns 0 0 1 0 0 0 The problem is that the network offset is set to the hard_header_len of the output device (tun1, ie 14 + 20) and in our case, because the packet is small (48 bytes) the pskb_inet_may_pull() fails (it tries to pull 40 bytes (ipv6 header) starting from the network offset). This problem is more generally related to device with variable hard header length. To avoid a too intrusive patch in the current release, a (ugly) workaround is proposed in this patch. It has to be cleaned up in net-next.
