Subject: [PATCH 4/4] icmp: Don't discard first reply sequence for a given echo ID
Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2022 18:25:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221026162531.545374-5-sbrivio@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221026162531.545374-1-sbrivio@redhat.com>

In pasta mode, ICMP and ICMPv6 echo sockets relay back to us any
reply we send: we're on the same host as the target, after all. We
discard them by comparing the last sequence we sent with the sequence
we receive.

However, on the first reply for a given identifier, the sequence
might be zero, depending on the implementation of ping(8): we need
another value to indicate we haven't sent any sequence number, yet.

Use -1 as initialiser in the echo identifier map.

This is visible with Busybox's ping, and was reported by Paul on the
integration at https://github.com/containers/podman/pull/16141, with:

  $ podman run --net=pasta alpine ping -c 2 192.168.188.1

...where only the second reply would be routed back.
