net: be more gentle about silly gso requests coming from user
Recent change in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() broke some packetdrill tests.
When --mss=XXX option is set, packetdrill always provide gso_type & gso_size
for its inbound packets, regardless of packet size.
if (packet->tcp && packet->mss) {
if (packet->ipv4)
gso.gso_type = VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCPV4;
else
gso.gso_type = VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCPV6;
gso.gso_size = packet->mss;
}
Since many other programs could do the same, relax virtio_net_hdr_to_skb()
to no longer return an error, but instead ignore gso settings.
This keeps Willem intent to make sure no malicious packet could
reach gso stack.
Note that TCP stack has a special logic in tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()
to clear gso_size for small packets.
Fixes: 6dd912f ("net: check untrusted gso_size at kernel entry")
