Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 6/8] selftests: traceroute: Reword comment
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2025 10:32:36 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250908073238.119240-7-idosch@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250908073238.119240-1-idosch@nvidia.com>
Both of the addresses are configured as primary addresses, but the
kernel is expected to choose 10.0.1.1/24 as the source IP of the ICMP
error message since it is on the same subnet as the destination IP of
the message (10.0.1.3/24). Reword the comment to reflect that.
