From 8153a10c08f1312af563bb92532002e46d3f504a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2009 01:25:58 +0000 Subject: ipv4 05/05: add sysctl to accept packets with local source addresses commit 8ec1e0ebe26087bfc5c0394ada5feb5758014fc8 Author: Patrick McHardy Date: Thu Dec 3 12:16:35 2009 +0100 ipv4: add sysctl to accept packets with local source addresses Change fib_validate_source() to accept packets with a local source address when the "accept_local" sysctl is set for the incoming inet device. Combined with the previous patches, this allows to communicate between multiple local interfaces over the wire. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: David S.
