This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled vxlan: don't allow overwrite of config src addr to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: vxlan-don-t-allow-overwrite-of-config-src-addr.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Sat Mar 18 22:03:25 CST 2017 From: Brian Russell <brussell@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2017 17:47:11 +0000 Subject: vxlan: don't allow overwrite of config src addr From: Brian Russell <brussell@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1158632b5a2dcce0786c1b1b99654e81cc867981 ] When using IPv6 transport and a default dst, a pointer to the configured source address is passed into the route lookup. If no source address is configured, then the value is overwritten. IPv6 route lookup ignores egress ifindex match if the source address is set, so if egress ifindex match is desired, the source address must be passed as any. The overwrite breaks this for subsequent lookups. Avoid this by copying the configured address to an existing stack variable and pass a pointer to that instead.
