Raw sockets with hdrincl enabled can insert ipv6 extension headers
right into the data stream. In case we need to fragment those packets,
we reparse the options header to find the place where we can insert
the fragment header. If the extension headers exceed the link's MTU we
actually cannot make progress in such a case.

Instead of ending up in broken arithmetic or rounding towards 0 and
entering an endless loop in ip6_fragment, just prevent those cases by
aborting early and signal -EMSGSIZE to user space.

This is the second version of the patch which doesn't use the
overflow_usub function, which got reverted for now.

Linus dislikes these changes. To not hold up the net-merge let's revert
it for now and fix the bug like Linus suggested.

This reverts commit ec3661b42257d9a06cf0d318175623ac7a660113, reversing
changes made to c80dbe04612986fd6104b4a1be21681b113b5ac9.

<title>ipv6: ip6_fragment: fix headroom tests and skb leak</title>

David Woodhouse reports skb_under_panic when we try to push ethernet
header to fragmented ipv6 skbs:

 skbuff: skb_under_panic: text:c1277f1e len:1294 put:14 head:dec98000
 data:dec97ffc tail:0xdec9850a end:0xdec98f40 dev:br-lan
[..]
ip6_finish_output2+0x196/0x4da

David further debugged this:
  [..] offending fragments were arriving here with skb_headroom(skb)==10.
  Which is reasonable, being the Solos ADSL card's header of 8 bytes
  followed by 2 bytes of PPP frame type.

The problem is that if netfilter ipv6 defragmentation is used, skb_cow()
in ip6_forward will only see reassembled skb.

Therefore, headroom is overestimated by 8 bytes (we pulled fragment
header) and we don't check the skbs in the frag_list either.

We can't do these checks in netfilter defrag since outdev isn't known yet.

Furthermore, existing tests in ip6_fragment did not consider the fragment
or ipv6 header size when checking headroom of the fraglist skbs.

While at it, also fix a skb leak on memory allocation -- ip6_fragment
must consume the skb.

I tested this e1000 driver hacked to not allocate additional headroom
(we end up in slowpath, since LL_RESERVED_SPACE is 16).

If 2 bytes of headroom are allocated, fastpath is taken (14 byte
ethernet header was pulled, so 16 byte headroom available in all
fragments).

This patch adds net argument to ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup
for use cases where sk is not available (like mpls).
sk appears to be needed to get the namespace 'net' and is optional
otherwise. This patch series changes ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup
to take net argument. sk remains optional.

All callers of ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup have been modified
to pass net. I have modified them to use already available
'net' in the scope of the call. I can change them to
sock_net(sk) to avoid any unintended change in behaviour if sock
namespace is different. They dont seem to be from code inspection.

Newly created flows don't have flowi6_oif set (at least if the
associated socket is not interface-bound). This leads to a mismatch in
__xfrm6_selector_match() for policies which specify an interface in the
selector (sel-&gt;ifindex != 0).

Backtracing shows this happens in code-paths originating from e.g.
ip6_datagram_connect(), rawv6_sendmsg() or tcp_v6_connect(). (UDP was
not tested for.)

In summary, this patch fixes policy matching on outgoing interface for
locally generated packets.

<title>ipv6: don't increase size when refragmenting forwarded ipv6 skbs</title>

<content type='text'>
since commit 6aafeef03b9d ("netfilter: push reasm skb through instead of
original frag skbs") we will end up sometimes re-fragmenting skbs
that we've reassembled.

ipv6 defrag preserves the original skbs using the skb frag list, i.e. as long
as the skb frag list is preserved there is no problem since we keep
original geometry of fragments intact.

However, in the rare case where the frag list is munged or skb
is linearized, we might send larger fragments than what we originally
received.

A router in the path might then send packet-too-big errors even if
sender never sent fragments exceeding the reported mtu:

mtu 1500 - 1500:1400 - 1400:1280 - 1280
     A         R1         R2        B

1 - A sends to B, fragment size 1400
2 - R2 sends pkttoobig error for 1280
3 - A sends to B, fragment size 1280
4 - R2 sends pkttoobig error for 1280 again because it sees fragments of size 1400.

make sure ip6_fragment always caps MTU at largest packet size seen
when defragmented skb is forwarded.
