Phil Sutter reports that IPv6 AH header matching is broken. From userspace, nft generates bytecode that expects to find the AH header at NFT_PAYLOAD_TRANSPORT_HEADER both for IPv4 and IPv6. However, pktinfo->thoff is set to the inner header after the AH header in IPv6, while in IPv4 pktinfo->thoff points to the AH header indeed. This behaviour is inconsistent. This patch fixes this problem by updating ipv6_find_hdr() to get the IP6_FH_F_AUTH flag so this function stops at the AH header, so both IPv4 and IPv6 pktinfo->thoff point to the AH header. This is also inconsistent when trying to match encapsulated headers: 1) A packet that looks like IPv4 + AH + TCP dport 22 will *not* match. 2) A packet that looks like IPv6 + AH + TCP dport 22 will match.

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.
