Subject: [PATCH v8 03/14] tap, conf: Replace addr_fixed with CONF_ADDR_USER flag check
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 22:45:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626024519.3701556-4-jmaloy@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260626024519.3701556-1-jmaloy@redhat.com>

The addr_fixed boolean (per address family) was introduced to prevent
observed traffic from overwriting addr_seen when the user explicitly
set an address with -a/--address.

The unified address array already tracks this: fwd_set_addr() marks
user-provided addresses with CONF_ADDR_USER. We now replace all
addr_fixed checks with fwd_get_addr() lookups for CONF_ADDR_USER
and remove the now-redundant field from ip4_ctx and ip6_ctx.
