Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH net v3] ipv6: remove min MTU check for ipsec tunnels
Date: Thu, 10 May 2018 23:15:44 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1525974344-2112-1-git-send-email-ashwanth@codeaurora.org> (raw)

With 749439bfac "fix udpv6 sendmsg crash caused by too small MTU"
ipsec tunnels that report a MTU less than IPV6_MIN_MTU are broken
even for packets that are smaller than IPV6_MIN_MTU.

According to rfc2473#section-7.1

    if the original IPv6 packet is equal or  smaller  than  the
    IPv6 minimum link MTU, the tunnel entry-point node
    encapsulates the original packet, and subsequently
    fragments the resulting IPv6 tunnel packet into IPv6
    fragments that do not exceed the Path MTU to the tunnel
    exit-point.

Dropping the MTU check for ipsec tunnel destinations.
