I ack the working of that change for my specific case: passing
pmtud's correctly:

and:

So the "|| found" sounds sane.
But now I'm going to be an ass by saying that maybe both patches must be
applied because we only get into ip_vs_nat_icmp_v6 by ip_vs_fill_iph_skb in
include/net/ip_vs.h, which determines the protocol and the start of the
protocol header by using -1 as target in ipv6_find_hdr.
Actually, before we reach that nat function we have traversed several
constructs of:
protocol,offset = ipv6_find_hdr (target = -1 )
if ( protocol != IPPROTO_ICMPV6)
bail out (return NF_ACCEPT actually) .
(and maybe use offset)
So I think it's clearer for the total code if we follow the exact same
construct:
find a protocol, bail out if protocol wrong.
It should never happen at that point, but there are more things that never
should happen :-).
Anyway: whatever you guys decide, I owe you all beer. I think we are one of the
few companies that assume a working pmtud for ipv6. Most of the top companies
just use an mtu of 1280 because the "hardware" loadbalancer cannot handle it
(yet) or just want to prevent the hassle. Thanks!
