Justin Iurman says: ==================== net: fix lwtunnel reentry loops When the destination is the same after the transformation, we enter a lwtunnel loop. This is true for most of lwt users: ioam6, rpl, seg6, seg6_local, ila_lwt, and lwt_bpf. It can happen in their input() and output() handlers respectively, where either dst_input() or dst_output() is called at the end. It can also happen in xmit() handlers. Here is an example for rpl_input(): dump_stack_lvl+0x60/0x80 rpl_input+0x9d/0x320 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 [...] lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 lwtunnel_input+0x64/0xa0 ip6_sublist_rcv_finish+0x85/0x90 ip6_sublist_rcv+0x236/0x2f0 ... until rpl_do_srh() fails, which means skb_cow_head() failed. This series provides a fix at the core level of lwtunnel to catch such loops when they're not caught by the respective lwtunnel users, and handle the loop case in ioam6 which is one of the users. This series also comes with a new selftest to detect some dst cache reference loops in lwtunnel users. ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250314120048.12569-1-justin.iurman@uliege.be Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
