From 6ea6b86ae73e1b36ddba3015739cedd24b062523 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Ahern Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2018 19:37:37 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: vrf: Add support for sends to local broadcast address [ Upstream commit 1e19c4d689dc1e95bafd23ef68fbc0c6b9e05180 ] Sukumar reported that sends to the local broadcast address (255.255.255.255) are broken. Check for the address in vrf driver and do not redirect to the VRF device - similar to multicast packets. With this change sockets can use SO_BINDTODEVICE to specify an egress interface and receive responses. Note: the egress interface can not be a VRF device but needs to be the enslaved device. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198521 Reported-by: Sukumar Gopalakrishnan Signed-off-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S.
