skb->rbnode is sharing three skb fields : next, prev, dev When a packet is sent, TCP keeps the original skb (master) in a rtx queue, which was converted to rbtree a while back. __tcp_transmit_skb() is responsible to clone the master skb, and add the TCP header to the clone before sending it to network layer. skb_clone() already clears skb->next and skb->prev, but copies the master oskb->dev into the clone. We need to clear skb->dev, otherwise lower layers could interpret the value as a pointer to a netdev. This old bug surfaced recently when commit 28f8bfd1 ("netfilter: Support iif matches in POSTROUTING") was merged. Before this netfilter commit, skb->dev value was ignored and changed before reaching dev_queue_xmit() Fixes: 75c119af ("tcp: implement rb-tree based retransmit queue") Fixes: 28f8bfd1 ("netfilter: Support iif matches in POSTROUTING") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: Martin Zaharinov <micron10@gmail.com> Cc: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Cc: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
