Subject: [PATCH] Make SO_BINDTODEVICE bind very tightly
Date: Tue, 07 Oct 2003 17:16:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F833B39.4020606@Carter.net> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 497 bytes --]

In the presence of both sockets that are and sockets that are not bound 
to a specific interface, those bound to the interface should always be 
favored for packet delivery over those not so bound.  Attached patch 
(against 2.6.0-test6) enforces these semantics by a slight adjustment to 
udp_v4_lookup_longway in net/ipv4/udp.c  The consequence of this change 
is to make SO_BINDTODEVICE bind more tightly than simple bind().
