    net: Avoid receiving packets with an l3mdev on unbound UDP sockets · 63a6fff3
    Robert Shearman 提交于
    Packets arriving in a VRF currently are delivered to UDP sockets that
    aren't bound to any interface. TCP defaults to not delivering packets
    arriving in a VRF to unbound sockets. IP route lookup and socket
    transmit both assume that unbound means using the default table and
    UDP applications that haven't been changed to be aware of VRFs may not
    function correctly in this case since they may not be able to handle
    overlapping IP address ranges, or be able to send packets back to the
    original sender if required.
    
    So add a sysctl, udp_l3mdev_accept, to control this behaviour with it
    being analgous to the existing tcp_l3mdev_accept, namely to allow a
    process to have a VRF-global listen socket. Have this default to off
    as this is the behaviour that users will expect, given that there is
    no explicit mechanism to set unmodified VRF-unaware application into a
    default VRF.
