From: Alexey Kodanev alexey.kodanev@oracle.com
[ Upstream commit 15f35d49c93f4fa9875235e7bf3e3783d2dd7a1b ]
Since UDP-Lite is always using checksum, the following path is triggered when calculating pseudo header for it:
udp4_csum_init() or udp6_csum_init() skb_checksum_init_zero_check() __skb_checksum_validate_complete()
The problem can appear if skb->len is less than CHECKSUM_BREAK. In this particular case __skb_checksum_validate_complete() also invokes __skb_checksum_complete(skb). If UDP-Lite is using partial checksum that covers only part of a packet, the function will return bad checksum and the packet will be dropped.
It can be fixed if we skip skb_checksum_init_zero_check() and only set the required pseudo header checksum for UDP-Lite with partial checksum before udp4_csum_init()/udp6_csum_init() functions return.
