From second fragment on, IPV6FR program must stop the dissection of IPV6
fragmented packet. This is the same approach used for IPV4 fragmentation.

Jakub, can you please take a look as well?

I'm not initimately familiar with this test, but looking at the change
I'd consider that Destinations Options and encapsulation headers can
follow the Fragment Header.

With enough of Dst Opts or levels of encapsulation, transport header
could be pushed to the 2nd fragment. So I'm not sure if the assertion
from the IPv4 dissector that 2nd fragment and following doesn't contain
any parseable header holds.

Taking a step back... what problem are we fixing here?

Hi Jakub,

thanks for your reply.

Let me explain the problem with an example.

Please consider the PCAP file:
https://github.com/named-data/ndn-tools/blob/master/tests/dissect-wireshark/ipv6-udp-fragmented.pcap
Let's assume that the dissector is invoked without the flag:
BPF_FLOW_DISSECTOR_F_STOP_AT_FLOW_LABEL.
 
Without the proposed patch, the flow keys for the second fragment (packet
timestamp 0.256997) will contain the value 0x6868 for the source and
destination port fields: this is obviously wrong.
The same happens for the third fragment (packet timestamp 0.256998) and for
the fourth fragment (packet timestamp 0.257001).

So it seems that the correct thing to do is to stop the dissector after the
IPV6 fragmentation header for all fragments from the second on.

Regards,
    Pierpaolo Santucci

(Santucci, please do not top-post but always reply inline which makes it
  easier for discussions to follow.)

Hm, staring at rfc8200, it says that the first fragment packet must include
the upper-layer header (e.g. tcp, udp). The patch here should probably add a
comment wrt to the rfc.

Thanks,
Daniel

You're right, it clearly says so. Nevermind my worries about malformed
packets then. Change LGTM:

Also please add some of the details discussed here to the commit msg so
we can remember this next time.
