Subject: [PATCH] xfrm bugs with mark logic

Hello! I am currently working with 2.6.34, trying to use iptables ...
-j MARK with XFRM policy. So, i found at least
two bugs in 2.6.34 kernel.

First bug is just typo in  xfrm_mark_get (net/xfrm.h):

memcpy(m, nla_data(attrs[XFRMA_MARK]), sizeof(m));

must be:

memcpy(m, nla_data(attrs[XFRMA_MARK]), sizeof(*m));

The second one, is clearing mark in flowi structure via memset in
_decode_session4 (net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c).
(see net/ipv4/netfilter.c, ip_route_me_harder function)
int ip_route_me_harder(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned addr_type)
/* ... */
        if (addr_type == RTN_LOCAL) {
/* ... */
                fl.mark = skb->mark; /* here, set mark from skb */
/* ... */
#ifdef CONFIG_XFRM
        if (!(IPCB(skb)->flags & IPSKB_XFRM_TRANSFORMED) &&
            xfrm_decode_session(skb, &fl, AF_INET) == 0) { /* here
fl->mark will be zeroed */
            /* ... */
            if (xfrm_lookup(net, &dst, &fl, skb->sk, 0)) /* here
policy lookup will fail */

Do not know about ipv6 anything, but it's like that it affected by
this bug too. :(

P.S. Sorry for my bad English. :)

w.b.r. Peter Kosyh
