Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 229/273] ipv6/udp: use sticky pktinfo egress ifindex on connect()
4.2.8-ckt5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------
From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@...hat.com>
[ Upstream commit 1cdda91871470f15e79375991bd2eddc6e86ddb1 ]
Currently, the egress interface index specified via IPV6_PKTINFO
is ignored by __ip6_datagram_connect(), so that RFC 3542 section 6.7
can be subverted when the user space application calls connect()
before sendmsg().
Fix it by initializing properly flowi6_oif in connect() before
performing the route lookup.
