4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Vincent Bernat <vinc...@bernat.im> commit cede24d1b21d68d84ac5a36c44f7d37daadcc258 upstream. In commit 47b7e7f82802, this bit was removed at the same time the RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag was removed. However, it is needed when link-local addresses are used, which is a very common case: when packets are routed, neighbor solicitations are done using link-local addresses. For example, the following neighbor solicitation is not matched by "-m rpfilter": IP6 fe80::5254:33ff:fe00:1 > ff02::1:ff00:3: ICMP6, neighbor solicitation, who has 2001:db8::5254:33ff:fe00:3, length 32 Commit 47b7e7f82802 doesn't quite explain why we shouldn't use RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE in the rpfilter case. I suppose the interface check later in the function would make it redundant. However, the remaining of the routing code is using RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE when there is no source address (which matches rpfilter's case with a non-unicast destination, like with neighbor solicitation).
