ip_fragment: don't forward defragmented DF packet
We currently always send fragments without DF bit set. Thus, given following setup: mtu1500 - mtu1500:1400 - mtu1400:1280 - mtu1280 A R1 R2 B Where R1 and R2 run linux with netfilter defragmentation/conntrack enabled, then if Host A sent a fragmented packet _with_ DF set to B, R1 will respond with icmp too big error if one of these fragments exceeded 1400 bytes. However, if R1 receives fragment sizes 1200 and 100, it would forward the reassembled packet without refragmenting, i.e. R2 will send an icmp error in response to a packet that was never sent, citing mtu that the original sender never exceeded. The other minor issue is that a refragmentation on R1 will conceal the MTU of R2-B since refragmentation does not set DF bit on the fragments. This modifies ip_fragment so that we track largest fragment size seen both for DF and non-DF packets, and set frag_max_size to the largest value. If the DF fragment size is larger or equal to the non-df one, we will consider the packet a path mtu probe: We set DF bit on the reassembled skb and also tag it with a new IPCB flag to force refragmentation even if skb fits outdev mtu. We will also set DF bit on each fragment in this case. Joint work with Hannes Frederic Sowa.
