ipv6: distinguish frag queues by device for multicast and link-local packets

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 264640fc2c ]

If a fragmented multicast packet is received on an ethernet device which
has an active macvlan on top of it, each fragment is duplicated and
received both on the underlying device and the macvlan. If some
fragments for macvlan are processed before the whole packet for the
underlying device is reassembled, the "overlapping fragments" test in
ip6_frag_queue() discards the whole fragment queue.

To resolve this, add device ifindex to the search key and require it to
match reassembling multicast packets and packets to link-local
addresses.

Note: similar patch has been already submitted by Yoshifuji Hideaki in

but got lost and forgotten for some reason.
