Subject: [PATCH] ip: add udp_csum, udp6_csum_tx, udp6_csum_rx control flags to ip l2tp add tunnel
Hi, all
It’s my first time to contribute to such an important open source project. Things began when I upgraded my server, called "Server A", form ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04, which is shipped with new kernel version, 4.4. After upgrade, I soon found a l2tp tunnel between this server and another linux server, called "Server B", via ipv6 broke down. Here is the network topology:
+----------+ +----------+
| Server A | -- IPV6 Network -- | Server B |
+----------+ +----------+
The l2tp tunnel was encapsulated in udp datagrams. All the configuration was normal and could work after I reverted the kernel on Server A to original version.
Here is what i did to create the tunnel:
```
on Server A:
ip l2tp add tunnel tunnel_id 86 peer_tunnel_id 86 remote 2001:db8::aaaa local 2001:db8::bbbb udp_sport 1086 udp_dport 1086
ip l2tp add session name l2tpeth0 tunnel_id 86 session_id 86 peer_session_id 86
ip l s l2tpeth0 up
on Server B:
ip l2tp add tunnel tunnel_id 86 peer_tunnel_id 86 local 2001:db8::aaaa remote 2001:db8::bbbb udp_sport 1086 udp_dport 1086
ip l2tp add session name l2tpeth0 tunnel_id 86 session_id 86 peer_session_id 86
ip l s l2tpeth0 up
```
When I used tcpdump to diagnose the problem, I got such result:
```
on Server A:
arping -i l2tpeth0 -0 1.2.3.4
on Server B:
tcpdump -i eth0 -n port 1086 -v
21:35:57.818810 IP6 (flowlabel 0x8f028, hlim 64, next-header UDP (17) payload length: 62) 2001:db8::aaaa.1086 > 2001:db8::bbbb.1086: [bad udp cksum 0x0000 -> 0x1140!] UDP, length 54
21:35:58.820572 IP6 (flowlabel 0x8f028, hlim 64, next-header UDP (17) payload length: 62) 2001:db8::aaaa.1086 > 2001:db8::bbbb.1086: [bad udp cksum 0x0000 -> 0x1140!] UDP, length 54
21:35:59.822216 IP6 (flowlabel 0x8f028, hlim 64, next-header UDP (17) payload length: 62) 2001:db8::aaaa.1086 > 2001:db8::bbbb.1086: [bad udp cksum 0x0000 -> 0x1140!] UDP, length 54
```
After looking into kernel source, I found out that in this commit a new feature to set udp6 checksum to zero in commit 6b649fe, which added `L2TP_ATTR_UDP_ZERO_CSUM6_TX` and `L2TP_ATTR_UDP_ZERO_CSUM6_TX`.
As a result, I added `udp_csum`, `udp6_csum_tx`, `udp6_csum_rx` control flags to `ip l2tp add tunnel` to control those attributes about checksum.
Using this to create the tunnel instead on Server A:
```
ip l2tp add tunnel tunnel_id 86 peer_tunnel_id 86 remote 2001:db8::aaaa local 2001:db8::bbbb udp_sport 1086 udp_dport 1086 udp6_csum_tx on udp6_csum_rx on
```
I finally got:
```
on Server A:
arping -i l2tpeth0 -0 1.2.3.4
on Server B:
tcpdump -i eth0 -n port 1086 -v
22:07:03.844297 IP6 (flowlabel 0x8f028, hlim 64, next-header UDP (17) payload length: 62) 2001:db8::aaaa.1086 > 2001:db8::bbbb.1086: [udp sum ok] UDP, length 54

```
It seems to work. However, is it the real point that should be fixed and does my patch fix it well? I need your suggestion.
