2014-10-21 11:16:38 Alexander Ponyatykh description Suppose there is host X you want to connect to and there is some host Y on the path to X with MTU less than 1500. In usual conditions linux can discover PMTU, but not when there is no route to Y via the same interface as to X. Example: 10.2.2.2 is X, 10.2.2.2.1 is Y,10.0.0.2 is localhost and 10.0.0.1 is gateway. # ip route default via 10.0.0.1 dev wlan0 proto static 10.0.0.0/22 dev wlan0 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.0.2 metric 9 # tracepath -n 10.2.2.2 1?: [LOCALHOST] pmtu 1500 1: 10.0.0.1 2.362ms ... 6: 10.2.2.2.1 6.100ms 7: 10.2.2.2.1 7.450ms pmtu 1448 7: 10.2.2.2.2 9.232ms !H Resume: pmtu 1448 # ping -M do -c 2 -s 1422 10.2.2.2 PING 10.2.2.2 (10.2.2.2) 1422(1450) bytes of data.

In this case there is only direct route to VPN gateway (except local net) via physical interface, and VPN packets larger than PMTU are discarded, since PMTUD doesn't work. I've also tested mainline kernel v3.18-rc1-utopic with the same results.
