Subject: ip6_tunnel: Update skb->protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_xmit()
X-Git-Url: http://git.cascardo.eti.br/?p=cascardo%2Flinux.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=ae148b085876fa771d9ef2c05f85d4b4bf09ce0d

ip6_tunnel: Update skb->protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_xmit()

This patch updates skb->protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_xmit() when an
IPv6 header is installed to a socket buffer.

This is not a cosmetic change.  Without updating this value, GSO packets
transmitted through an ipip6 tunnel have the protocol of ETH_P_IP and
skb_mac_gso_segment() will attempt to call gso_segment() for IPv4,
which results in the packets being dropped.
