Subject: [PATCH net v4 0/2] vxlan: reset the remote's dst cache when snooping moves a MAC
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 23:51:31 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113155133.75090-1-ilskdw@gmail.com> (raw)
When a learning VXLAN device snoops a known MAC from another VTEP, it
rewrites the remote's IP address in place but keeps the remote's
dst_cache and remote_ifindex. Traffic to the moved MAC can then use the
route cached for the previous remote and be blackholed. Patch 1 updates
the remote the way vxlan_fdb_replace() does. Patch 2 adds a selftest
for both cases.
The selftest fails both cases on net without patch 1 (8 of 8 runs with
1, 2 and 4 CPUs) and passes them with it (16 of 16 runs).
v4:
- add the selftest (Nicolas Dichtel)
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20261111180001.2475-1-ilskdw@gmail.com/
- use my real name in From: and Signed-off-by:
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20261110153020.9635-1-ilskdw@gmail.com/
- also update remote_ifindex and clear offloaded, as vxlan_fdb_replace() does
- add the IPv6 link-local case to the changelog and a second Fixes tag
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20261106144406.66035-1-ilskdw@gmail.com/
