Subject: Re: BPF redirect API design issue for BPF-prog MTU feedback?
Hi guys,
My kernel knowledge is small, but I experienced this (similar) issue
with packet encapsulation (not a redirect), therefore modifying the
redirect branch would not help in my case.
I'm working on a TC program to do GUE encap/decap (IP + UDP + GUE,
outer header has extra 52B).
There are no issues with small packets. But when I use curl to
download big file HTTP server chunks data randomly. Some packets have
MTU size, others are even bigger. Big packets are not an issue,
however MTU sized packets fail on bpf_skb_adjust_room with -524
(ENOTSUPP).
Below are some (annotated) logs for small, MTU-sized and beefy packets
I collected from /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.
Log is produced by egress TC on server side (node1 TX)

I tried kernels from 5.2 to 5.8 and they behave the same, only
difference I noticed is skb->gso_size is supported by 5.7+.
bpf_skb_net_grow should recompute GSO, but base on visual code check
it not getting there because of:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/9907ab371426da8b3cffa6cc3e4ae54829559207/net/core/filter.c
line: 3256
if ((shrink && (len_diff_abs >= len_cur ||
len_cur - len_diff_abs < len_min)) ||
(!shrink && (skb->len + len_diff_abs > len_max && <-
enlarge && new-size-exceeds-MTU && gso-size is not set yet
!skb_is_gso(skb))))
return -ENOTSUPP;
IMHO len_max could help, but I do not understand the
"!skb_is_gso(skb)" check under current conditions. I'm probably
missing something here, but if it was a "system wide" setting it would
make sense (we can handle > MTU packets because GSO kicks in OR we
can't because of no GSO). But it doesn't make sense to me why some
packets in the same stream support GSO and others do not.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/3e8d3bdc2a757cc6be5470297947799a7df445cc/include/linux/skbuff.h
static inline bool skb_is_gso(const struct sk_buff *skb)
{
return skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size;
}
