[PATCH 4.14 34/71] net: vrf: Add support for sends to local broadcast address
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 29 2018 - 16:13:15 EST
4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: David Ahern <dsahern@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 1e19c4d689dc1e95bafd23ef68fbc0c6b9e05180 ]
Sukumar reported that sends to the local broadcast address
(255.255.255.255) are broken. Check for the address in vrf driver
and do not redirect to the VRF device - similar to multicast
packets.
With this change sockets can use SO_BINDTODEVICE to specify an
egress interface and receive responses. Note: the egress interface
can not be a VRF device but needs to be the enslaved device.
