Subject: [PATCH v2 4/9] fwd: Check all configured addresses in guest accessibility functions
Date: Sun, 18 Jan 2026 17:16:07 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260118221612.2115386-5-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260118221612.2115386-1-jmaloy@redhat.com>

As a preparation for handling multiple addresses, we update
fwd_guest_accessible4() and fwd_guest_accessible6() to check
against all addresses in the addrs[] array.

This ensures that when multiple addresses are configured via -a options,
inbound traffic for any of them is correctly detected as having no valid
forwarding path, and subsequently dropped. This occurs when a peer
address collides with an address the guest is using, and we have no
translation for it.

Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jmaloy@redhat.com>
