From: Miaohe Lin <linmiaohe@xxxxxxxxxx> When firewall is enabled with rp_filter, vrf ipv6 packets will be dropped because in device is vrf but out device is an enslaved device. So rt->rt6i_idev->dev != dev and maybe return false in func rpfilter_lookup_reverse6. Here is the out message when I ping the peer: ip vrf exec vrf1 ping 2013::2 -c 1 1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms The drop info in /var/log/message: Apr 24 14:59:45 localhost kernel: [81316.158259] rpfilter_DROP: IN=vrf1 OUT= MAC=52:54:00:9e:dd:c1:52:54:00:4f:81:38:86:dd SRC=2013:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0002 DST=2013:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001 LEN=104 TC=0 HOPLIMIT=64 FLOWLBL=1032942 PROTO=ICMPv6 TYPE=129 CODE=0 ID=14943 SEQ=1 Signed-off-by: linmiaohe <linmiaohe@xxxxxxxxxx> --- net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_rpfilter.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_rpfilter.c b/net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_rpfilter.c index c3c6b09acdc4..cf1070ab1252 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_rpfilter.c +++ b/net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6t_rpfilter.c @@ -73,6 +73,12 @@ static bool rpfilter_lookup_reverse6(struct net *net, const struct sk_buff *skb, goto out; } + if (netif_is_l3_master(dev)) { + dev = dev_get_by_index_rcu(dev_net(dev), IP6CB(skb)->iif); + if (!dev) + goto out; + } + if (rt->rt6i_idev->dev == dev || (flags & XT_RPFILTER_LOOSE)) ret = true; out: -- 2.19.1
