Paolo Abeni 294acf1c01 net/tunnel: set inner protocol in network gro hooks
The gso code of several tunnels type (gre and udp tunnels)
takes for granted that the skb->inner_protocol is properly
initialized and drops the packet elsewhere.

On the forwarding path no one is initializing such field,
so gro encapsulated packets are dropped on forward.

Since commit 3872035241 ("gre: Use inner_proto to obtain
inner header protocol"), this can be reproduced when the
encapsulated packets use gre as the tunneling protocol.

The issue happens also with vxlan and geneve tunnels since
commit 8bce6d7d0d ("udp: Generalize skb_udp_segment"), if the
forwarding host's ingress nic has h/w offload for such tunnel
and a vxlan/geneve device is configured on top of it, regardless
of the configured peer address and vni.

To address the issue, this change initialize the inner_protocol
field for encapsulated packets in both ipv4 and ipv6 gro complete
callbacks.

Fixes: 3872035241 ("gre: Use inner_proto to obtain inner header protocol")
Fixes: 8bce6d7d0d ("udp: Generalize skb_udp_segment")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
