[PATCH 5.18 137/339] net: ping6: Fix ping -6 with interface name

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Aya Levin <ayal@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e6652a8ef3e64d953168a95878fe29b934ad78ac ]

When passing interface parameter to ping -6:
$ ping -6 ::11:141:84:9 -I eth2
Results in:
PING ::11:141:84:10(::11:141:84:10) from ::11:141:84:9 eth2: 56 data bytes
ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument
ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument

Initialize the fl6's outgoing interface (OIF) before triggering
ip6_datagram_send_ctl. Don't wipe fl6 after ip6_datagram_send_ctl() as
changes in fl6 that may happen in the function are overwritten explicitly.
Update comment accordingly.

Fixes: 13651224c00b ("net: ping6: support setting basic SOL_IPV6 options via cmsg")
