Subject: ipv4 05/05: add sysctl to accept packets with local source addresses
Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2009 12:25:58 +0100 (MET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091203112557.15100.85827.sendpatchset@x2.localnet> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20091203112550.15100.86217.sendpatchset@x2.localnet>
commit 8ec1e0ebe26087bfc5c0394ada5feb5758014fc8
Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
Date: Thu Dec 3 12:16:35 2009 +0100
ipv4: add sysctl to accept packets with local source addresses
Change fib_validate_source() to accept packets with a local source address when
the "accept_local" sysctl is set for the incoming inet device. Combined with the
previous patches, this allows to communicate between multiple local interfaces
over the wire.
