Date: Fri, 27 Sep 2013 22:14:20 +0200 From: "Steinar H. Gunderson" <sgunderson@...foot.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: edumazet@...gle.com Subject: IPv6 path MTU discovery broken Hi, PMTU discovery over IPv6 has been flaky for me for a while, but at some point between 3.10 and 3.11, it broke for me completely. Just checked with 3.12.0-rc2 and the problem is still there. First, a look at my routing table, which is slightly unusual due to tunnels and BGP being involved: pannekake:~> sudo ip -6 route 2001:500:72::/48 via 2001:67c:29f4::1 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 1024 2001:67c:a4::/48 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 2001:67c:29f4:1::/64 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4:1000::/64 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4:1001::/64 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4:1003::/64 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4:1005::/64 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4:1007::/64 via fe80::230:48ff:fe55:5743 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 100 2001:67c:29f4::/48 via 2001:67c:29f4::1 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 1024 2001:700::/32 via 2001:67c:29f4::1 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 1024 2a02:2368::/32 via 2001:67c:29f4::1 dev eth0 proto zebra metric 1024 fe80::c30b:9a61 dev k_sessesveits proto kernel metric 256 fe80::c30b:9a61 dev k_wikene proto kernel metric 256 fe80::c30b:9a61 dev k_trygve proto kernel metric 256 fe80::c30b:9a61 dev k_magne proto kernel metric 256 fe80::c30b:9a61 dev k_berge proto kernel metric 256 fe80::c30b:9a61 dev k_molven proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev k_sessesveits proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev k_wikene proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev k_trygve proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev k_magne proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev k_berge proto kernel metric 256 fe80::/64 dev k_molven proto kernel metric 256 default via 2001:67c:29f4::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 Note in particular that 2001:67c:a4::/48 goes to a link-local address. The tcpdump is classic; when I try to do something big over my SSH session, like an ls, it starts failing: 22:02:13.597303 IP6 2001:67c:29f4::50.22 > 2001:67c:a4:1:5c5f:5194:3a7e:4878.48943: Flags

like they're being ignored. However, they _do_ reach the kernel somehow, since Icmp6InPktTooBigs seems to increase. Could this be related somehow to the packets coming from 2001:67c:29f4::31, while the default route is to a link-local address? (An RPF issue?) This used to work (although it was often flaky for me) in 3.10 and before. I can't easily bisect, though, as I don't boot this machine too often. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
