Subject: [PATCH v3 04/11] fwd: Check all configured addresses in guest accessibility functions
Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2026 16:44:40 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260130214447.2540791-5-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260130214447.2540791-1-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 unified addrs[] array using the
for_each_addr() macro.
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.
