So, when sending a datagram with ancillary data, the unicast and anycast addresses are handled in the same way. - Adds ipv6_chk_acast_addr_src() to check if an anycast address is link-local on given interface or is global. - Uses it in ip6_datagram_send_ctl(). Signed-off-by: Francois-Xavier Le Bail --- v2: Consideration of Hannes's review: - Same behaviour for anycast and unicast. - No need for a new socket option. Typical usage : A server uses IPV6_RECVPKTINFO socket option to get ancillary data with recvmsg() and can use sendmsg() to reply with anycast adress as source address in the same way it does for unicast. include/net/addrconf.h | 5 +++-- net/ipv6/anycast.c | 11 +++++++++++ net/ipv6/datagram.c | 4 +++- 3 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html diff --git a/include/net/addrconf.h b/include/net/addrconf.h index 66c4a44..50e39a8 100644 --- a/include/net/addrconf.h +++ b/include/net/addrconf.h @@ -205,8 +205,9 @@ void ipv6_sock_ac_close(struct sock *sk); int ipv6_dev_ac_inc(struct net_device *dev, const struct in6_addr *addr); int __ipv6_dev_ac_dec(struct inet6_dev *idev, const struct in6_addr *addr); bool ipv6_chk_acast_addr(struct net *net, struct net_device *dev, - const struct in6_addr *addr); - + const struct in6_addr *addr); +bool ipv6_chk_acast_addr_src(struct net *net, struct net_device *dev, + const struct in6_addr *addr); /* Device notifier */ int register_inet6addr_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); diff --git a/net/ipv6/anycast.c b/net/ipv6/anycast.c index 5a80f15..d3a6e2d 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/anycast.c +++ b/net/ipv6/anycast.c @@ -383,6 +383,17 @@ bool ipv6_chk_acast_addr(struct net *net, struct net_device *dev, return found; } +/* check if this anycast address is link-local on given interface or + * is global + */ +bool ipv6_chk_acast_addr_src(struct net *net, struct net_device *dev, + const struct in6_addr *addr) +{ + if (ipv6_addr_type(addr) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL) + return ipv6_chk_acast_dev(dev, addr); + else + return ipv6_chk_acast_addr(net, NULL, addr); +} #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS struct ac6_iter_state { diff --git a/net/ipv6/datagram.c b/net/ipv6/datagram.c index cd8699b..2615197 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/datagram.c +++ b/net/ipv6/datagram.c @@ -689,7 +689,9 @@ int ip6_datagram_send_ctl(struct net *net, struct sock *sk, int strict = __ipv6_addr_src_scope(addr_type) <= IPV6_ADDR_SCOPE_LINKLOCAL; if (!(inet_sk(sk)->freebind || inet_sk(sk)->transparent) && !ipv6_chk_addr(net, &src_info->ipi6_addr, - strict ? dev : NULL, 0)) + strict ? dev : NULL, 0) && + !ipv6_chk_acast_addr_src(net, dev, + &src_info->ipi6_addr)) err = -EINVAL; else fl6->saddr = src_info->ipi6_addr;
