A situation can occur where the interface bound to the sk is different
to the interface bound to the sk attached to the skb. The interface
bound to the sk is the correct one however this information is lost inside
xfrm_output2 and instead the sk on the skb is used in xfrm_output_resume
instead. This assumes that the sk bound interface and the bound interface
attached to the sk within the skb are the same which can lead to lookup
failures inside ip_route_me_harder resulting in the packet being dropped.
We have an l2tp v3 tunnel with ipsec protection. The tunnel is in the
global VRF however we have an encapsulated dot1q tunnel interface that
is within a different VRF. We also have a mangle rule that marks the
packets causing them to be processed inside ip_route_me_harder.
Prior to commit 31c70d5956fc ("l2tp: keep original skb ownership") this
worked fine as the sk attached to the skb was changed from the dot1q
encapsulated interface to the sk for the tunnel which meant the interface
bound to the sk and the interface bound to the skb were identical.
Commit 46d6c5ae953c ("netfilter: use actual socket sk rather than skb sk
when routing harder") fixed some of these issues however a similar
problem existed in the xfrm code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
