If netfilter changes the packet mark when mangling, the packet is
rerouted using the route_me_harder set of functions. Prior to this
commit, there's one big difference between route_me_harder and the
ordinary initial routing functions, described in the comment above
__ip_queue_xmit():
/* Note: skb->sk can be different from sk, in case of tunnels */
int __ip_queue_xmit(struct sock *sk, struct sk_buff *skb, struct flowi *fl,
That function goes on to correctly make use of sk->sk_bound_dev_if,
rather than skb->sk->sk_bound_dev_if. And indeed the comment is true: a
tunnel will receive a packet in ndo_start_xmit with an initial skb->sk.
It will make some transformations to that packet, and then it will send
the encapsulated packet out of a *new* socket. That new socket will
basically always have a different sk_bound_dev_if (otherwise there'd be
a routing loop). So for the purposes of routing the encapsulated packet,
the routing information as it pertains to the socket should come from
that socket's sk, rather than the packet's original skb->sk. For that
reason __ip_queue_xmit() and related functions all do the right thing.
One might argue that all tunnels should just call skb_orphan(skb) before
transmitting the encapsulated packet into the new socket. But tunnels do
*not* do this -- and this is wisely avoided in skb_scrub_packet() too --
because features like TSQ rely on skb->destructor() being called when
that buffer space is truely available again. Calling skb_orphan(skb) too
early would result in buffers filling up unnecessarily and accounting
info being all wrong. Instead, additional routing must take into account
the new sk, just as __ip_queue_xmit() notes.
So, this commit addresses the problem by fishing the correct sk out of
state->sk -- it's already set properly in the call to nf_hook() in
__ip_local_out(), which receives the sk as part of its normal
functionality. So we make sure to plumb state->sk through the various
route_me_harder functions, and then make correct use of it following the
example of __ip_queue_xmit().

Since v5.1-rc1, some types of packets do not get unreachable reply with the
following iptables setting. Fox example,
$ iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type 8 -j REJECT
$ ping 127.0.0.1 -c 1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
— 127.0.0.1 ping statistics —
1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms
We should have got the following reply from command line, but we did not.
From 127.0.0.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable
Yi Zhao reported it and narrowed it down to:
7fc3822536 ("netfilter: reject: skip csum verification for protocols that don't support it"),
This is because nf_ip_checksum still expects pseudo-header protocol type 0 for
packets that are of neither TCP or UDP, and thus ICMP packets are mistakenly
treated as TCP/UDP.
This patch corrects the conditions in nf_ip_checksum and all other places that
still call it with protocol 0.

indirect calls are only needed if ipv6 is a module.
Add helpers to abstract the v6ops indirections and use them instead.
fragment, reroute and route_input are kept as indirect calls.
The first two are not not used in hot path and route_input is only
used by bridge netfilter.

similar to previous change, this also allows to remove it
from nf_ipv6_ops and avoid the indirection.
It also removes the bogus dependency of nf_conntrack_ipv6 on ipv6 module:
ipv6 checksum functions are built into kernel even if CONFIG_IPV6=m,
but ipv6/netfilter.o isn't.

We cannot make a direct call to nf_ip6_reroute() because that would result
in autoloading the 'ipv6' module because of symbol dependencies.
Therefore, define reroute indirection in nf_ipv6_ops where this really
belongs to.
For IPv4, we can indeed make a direct function call, which is faster,
given IPv4 is built-in in the networking code by default. Still,
CONFIG_INET=n and CONFIG_NETFILTER=y is possible, so define empty inline
stub for IPv4 in such case.
