Series [Openvpn-devel,v4,1/8] Replace TUN_MTU_SIZE with frame->tun_mtu | expand

Commit Message

Arne Schwabe Feb. 10, 2022, 5:26 a.m. UTC
Instead relying on the link_mtu_dynamic field and its calculation
in the frame struct, add a new field max_fragment_size and add
a calculation of it similar to mssfix.

Also whenever mssfix value is calculated, we also want to calculate
the values for fragment as both options need to be calculated from
the real overhead.

Patch v2: Fix syntax in rst man page

Not sure what exactly caused this (maybe the reordering), but applying
3/8 after 1+2 (in tree) leads to "UDP p2mp server crashing"

the crucial part is "lsi=0x0" here, I think, but I'm not sure why... we do
have a socket, we know we bound it to IPv6 (+dual-stack)...

which looks weird, but is likely due to inlining.


The culprit is this one:

    return datagram_overhead(af, lsi->proto);

"lsi" is still NULL...

Not sure how to fix this in a good way.

This function is called to early now and doesn't anything useful anymore 
apart when used in --static/crypto none context. So I changed it to not 
crash in these cases and added a comment that the call is superflous for 
most of OpenVPN's operation. If we at some point remove --static/no 
crypto (non TLS modes), we can do a lot of cleanup.
