Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 01/14] net: mctp: don't use source cb data when forwarding, ensure pkt_type is set
Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2025 15:34:39 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250625-dev-forwarding-v3-1-2061bd3013b3@codeconstruct.com.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250625-dev-forwarding-v3-0-2061bd3013b3@codeconstruct.com.au>
In the output path, only check the skb->cb data when we know it's from
a local socket; input packets will have source address information there
instead.
In order to detect when we're forwarding, set skb->pkt_type on
input/output.
