3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: lucien <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> commit cc4998febd567d1c671684abce5595344bd4e8b2 upstream. --accept-local option works for res.type == RTN_LOCAL, which should be from the local table, but there, the fib_info's nh->nh_scope = RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE ( > RT_SCOPE_HOST). in fib_create_info(). if (cfg->fc_scope == RT_SCOPE_HOST) { struct fib_nh *nh = fi->fib_nh; /* Local address is added. */ if (nhs != 1 || nh->nh_gw) goto err_inval; nh->nh_scope = RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE; <=== nh->nh_dev = dev_get_by_index(net, fi->fib_nh->nh_oif); err = -ENODEV; if (!nh->nh_dev) goto failure; but in our rpfilter_lookup_reverse(): if (dev_match || flags & XT_RPFILTER_LOOSE) return FIB_RES_NH(res).nh_scope <= RT_SCOPE_HOST; if nh->nh_scope > RT_SCOPE_HOST, it will fail. --accept-local option will never be passed. it seems the test is bogus and can be removed to fix this issue. if (dev_match || flags & XT_RPFILTER_LOOSE) return FIB_RES_NH(res).nh_scope <= RT_SCOPE_HOST; ipv6 does not have this issue.
