Andrew Lunn af58dbc08e icmp: ICMPV6: Examine invoking packet for Segment Route Headers.
[ Upstream commit e41294408c ]

RFC8754 says:

ICMP error packets generated within the SR domain are sent to source
nodes within the SR domain.  The invoking packet in the ICMP error
message may contain an SRH.  Since the destination address of a packet
with an SRH changes as each segment is processed, it may not be the
destination used by the socket or application that generated the
invoking packet.

For the source of an invoking packet to process the ICMP error
message, the ultimate destination address of the IPv6 header may be
required.  The following logic is used to determine the destination
address for use by protocol-error handlers.

*  Walk all extension headers of the invoking IPv6 packet to the
   routing extension header preceding the upper-layer header.

   -  If routing header is type 4 Segment Routing Header (SRH)

      o  The SID at Segment List[0] may be used as the destination
         address of the invoking packet.

Mangle the skb so the network header points to the invoking packet
inside the ICMP packet. The seg6 helpers can then be used on the skb
to find any segment routing headers. If found, mark this fact in the
IPv6 control block of the skb, and store the offset into the packet of
the SRH. Then restore the skb back to its old state.

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 Restructured Text 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.
