[PATCH 3.16 075/204] ipv4: fix broadcast packets reception

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Dec 28 2017 - 12:58:12 EST


3.16.52-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit ad0ea1989cc4d5905941d0a9e62c63ad6d859cef upstream.

Currently, ingress ipv4 broadcast datagrams are dropped since,
in udp_v4_early_demux(), ip_check_mc_rcu() is invoked even on
bcast packets.

This patch addresses the issue, invoking ip_check_mc_rcu()
only for mcast packets.

Fixes: 6e5403093261 ("ipv4/udp: Verify multicast group is ours in upd_v4_early_demux()")
