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 Fri Jun 2 12:04:25 JST 2017 From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 12 May 2017 14:39:52 +0800 Subject: sctp: fix src address selection if using secondary addresses for ipv6 From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit dbc2b5e9a09e9a6664679a667ff81cff6e5f2641 ] Commit 0ca50d12fe46 ("sctp: fix src address selection if using secondary addresses") has fixed a src address selection issue when using secondary addresses for ipv4. Now sctp ipv6 also has the similar issue. When using a secondary address, sctp_v6_get_dst tries to choose the saddr which has the most same bits with the daddr by sctp_v6_addr_match_len. It may make some cases not work as expected. hostA: [1] fd21:356b:459a:cf10::11 (eth1) [2] fd21:356b:459a:cf20::11 (eth2) hostB: [a] fd21:356b:459a:cf30::2 (eth1) [b] fd21:356b:459a:cf40::2 (eth2) route from hostA to hostB: fd21:356b:459a:cf30::/64 dev eth1 metric 1024 mtu 1500 The expected path should be: fd21:356b:459a:cf10::11 <-> fd21:356b:459a:cf30::2 But addr[2] matches addr[a] more bits than addr[1] does, according to sctp_v6_addr_match_len. It causes the path to be: fd21:356b:459a:cf20::11 <-> fd21:356b:459a:cf30::2 This patch is to fix it with the same way as Marcelo's fix for sctp ipv4. As no ip_dev_find for ipv6, this patch is to use ipv6_chk_addr to check if the saddr is in a dev instead. Note that for backwards compatibility, it will still do the addr_match_len check here when no optimal is found.
