    xfrm: BEET mode doesn't support fragments for inner packets · 68dc022d
    Xin Long authored
    BEET mode replaces the IP(6) Headers with new IP(6) Headers when sending
    packets. However, when it's a fragment before the replacement, currently
    kernel keeps the fragment flag and replace the address field then encaps
    it with ESP. It would cause in RX side the fragments to get reassembled
    before decapping with ESP, which is incorrect.
    
    In Xiumei's testing, these fragments went over an xfrm interface and got
    encapped with ESP in the device driver, and the traffic was broken.
    
    I don't have a good way to fix it, but only to warn this out in dmesg.
