It is? All other GSO packets are generated by the stack itself, either locally or through GRO. But indeed some checks are better performed in the GSO layer. Such as likely the 0-byte mpls header length. If we cannot trust virtio_net_hdr.gso_type passed from userspace, then we can also not trust the eth.h_proto coming from the same source. But it makes sense to require them to be consistent. There is a dev_parse_header_protocol that may return the link layer type in a more generic fashion than casting to skb_eth_hdr. Question remains what to do for the link layer types that do not implement header_ops->parse_protocol, and so we cannot validate the packet's network protocol. Drop will cause false positives, accepts will leave a potential path, just closes it for Ethernet. This might call for multiple fixes, both on first ingest and inside the stack?
