Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] udp: support traceroute with udp
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2025 12:51:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250327165155.3354811-3-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250327165155.3354811-1-jmaloy@redhat.com>
Now that ICMP pass-through from socket-to-tap and TTL/hop limit based
outgoing flow separation is in place, it is easy to support UDP based
traceroute functionality in direction tap-to-socket.
We fix that in this commit.

v2: Using ancillary data instead of setsockopt to transfer outgoing
TTL.
