Subject: ip_gre: sendto/recvfrom NBMA address
Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2007 20:07:10 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47139E3E.4070006@iki.fi> (raw)

When GRE tunnel is in NBMA mode, this patch allows an application to use
a PF_PACKET socket to:
- send a packet to specific NBMA address with sendto()
- use recvfrom() to receive packet and check which NBMA address it came from

This is required to implement properly NHRP over GRE tunnel.
