Subject: [PATCH] net:ipv4: Packet is not forwarded when ingress interface is not configured with bc_forwarding
When an IPv4 packet with a destination address of broadcast is received
on an ingress interface, it will not be forwarded out of the egress
interface if the ingress interface is not configured with bc_forwarding
but the egress interface is. If both the ingress and egress interfaces
are configured with bc_forwarding, the packet can be forwarded successfully.
This patch is to be inline with Cisco's implementation that packet can be
forwarded if ingress interface is NOT configured with bc_forwarding,
but egress interface is.
