Quan Tian 7164d74aae net/ipv6: SKB symmetric hash should incorporate transport ports 
commit a5e2151ff9 upstream.

__skb_get_hash_symmetric() was added to compute a symmetric hash over
the protocol, addresses and transport ports, by commit eb70db8756
("packet: Use symmetric hash for PACKET_FANOUT_HASH."). It uses
flow_keys_dissector_symmetric_keys as the flow_dissector to incorporate
IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses and ports. However, it should not specify
the flag as FLOW_DISSECTOR_F_STOP_AT_FLOW_LABEL, which stops further
dissection when an IPv6 flow label is encountered, making transport
ports not being incorporated in such case.

As a consequence, the symmetric hash is based on 5-tuple for IPv4 but
3-tuple for IPv6 when flow label is present. It caused a few problems,
e.g. when nft symhash and openvswitch l4_sym rely on the symmetric hash
to perform load balancing as different L4 flows between two given IPv6
addresses would always get the same symmetric hash, leading to uneven
traffic distribution.

Removing the use of FLOW_DISSECTOR_F_STOP_AT_FLOW_LABEL makes sure the
symmetric hash is based on 5-tuple for both IPv4 and IPv6 consistently.

Fixes: eb70db8756 ("packet: Use symmetric hash for PACKET_FANOUT_HASH.")

README 

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.
