net: fix netfilter defrag/ip tunnel pmtu blackhole
Christian Perle reported a PMTU blackhole due to unexpected interaction
between the ip defragmentation that comes with connection tracking and
ip tunnels.
Unfortunately setting 'nopmtudisc' on the tunnel breaks the test
scenario even without netfilter.
Christinas setup looks like this:
+--------+ +---------+ +--------+
|Router A|-------|Wanrouter|-------|Router B|
| |.IPIP..| |..IPIP.| |
+--------+ +---------+ +--------+
/ mtu 1400 \
/ \
+--------+ +--------+
|Client A| |Client B|
+--------+ +--------+
MTU is 1500 everywhere, except on Router A to Wanrouter and
Wanrouter to Router B.
Router A and Router B use IPIP tunnel interfaces to tunnel traffic
between Client A and Client B over WAN.
Client A sends a 1400 byte UDP datagram to Client B.
This packet gets encapsulated in the IPIP tunnel.
This works, packet is received on client B.
When conntrack (or anything else that forces ip defragmentation) is
enabled on Router A, the packet gets dropped on Router A after
encapsulation because they exceed the link MTU.
Setting the 'nopmtudisc' flag on the IPIP tunnel makes things worse,
no packets pass even in the no-netfilter scenario.
Patch one is a reproducer script for selftest infra.
Patch two is a fix for 'nopmtudisc' behaviour so ip_tunnel will send
an icmp error to Client A. This allows 'nopmtudisc' tunnel to forward
the UDP datagrams.
Patch three enables ip refragmentation for all reassembled packets, just
like ipv6.

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.
