Subject: [PATCH] arp: allow arp processing to honor per interface arp_accept sysctl
Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2012 11:25:58 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1331825158-17584-1-git-send-email-nhorman@tuxdriver.com> (raw)
I found recently that the arp_process function which handles all of our received
arp frames, is using IPV4_DEVCONF_ALL macro to check the state of the arp_process
flag. This seems wrong, as it implies that either none or all of the network
interfaces accept gratuitous arps. This patch corrects that, allowing
per-interface arp_accept configuration to deviate from the all setting. Note
this also brings us into line with the way the arp_filter setting is handled
during arp_process execution.
Tested this myself on my home network, and confirmed it works as expected.
