Subject: [PATCH 1/8] tap: Don't clobber source address in tap6_handler()
Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2023 19:48:24 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230728094831.4097571-2-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230728094831.4097571-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
In tap6_handler() saddr is initialized to the IPv6 source address from the
incoming packet. However part way through, but before organizing the
packet into a "sequence" we set it unconditionally to the guest's assigned
address. We don't do anything equivalent for IPv4.
This doesn't make a lot of sense: if the guest is using a different source
address it makes sense to consider these different sequences of packets and
we shouldn't try to combine them together.
