    macvlan: enforce a consistent minimal mtu · b64085b0
    Eric Dumazet authored
    macvlan should enforce a minimal mtu of 68, even at link creation.
    
    This patch avoids the current behavior (which could lead to crashes
    in ipv6 stack if the link is brought up)
    
    $ ip link add macvlan1 link eno1 mtu 8 type macvlan  # This should fail !
    $ ip link sh dev macvlan1
    5: macvlan1@eno1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 8 qdisc noop
        state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:47:6c:24:74:82 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    $ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 67
    Error: mtu less than device minimum.
    $ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 68
    $ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 8
    Error: mtu less than device minimum.
    
    Fixes: 91572088 ("net: use core MTU range checking in core net infra")
