Thanks for the clarification.

So this is another bogus packet socket packet, with csum_start set
somewhere in the L2 header, and that gets popped by ipvlan, correct?

Do you have the exact packet and the virtio_net_hdr that caused this,
perhaps?

skb_partial_csum_set in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb has some basic bounds
tests for csum_start, csum_off and csum_end. But that does not
preclude an offset in the L2 header, from what I can tell.

Conceivably this can be added, though it is a bit complex for
devices with variable length link layer headers. And it would have
to happen not only for packet sockets, but all users of
virtio_net_hdr.
