Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2016 15:01:39 -0500 (EST) From: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> To: jbenc@...hat.com Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: [PATCH net] vxlan: do not use fdb in metadata mode From: Jiri Benc <jbenc@...hat.com> Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2016 22:18:26 +0100 > In metadata mode, the vxlan interface is not supposed to use the fdb control > plane but an external one (openvswitch or static routes). With the current > code, packets may leak into the fdb handling code which usually causes them > to be dropped anyway but may have strange side effects. > > Just drop the packets directly when in metadata mode if the destination data > are not correctly provided on egress. > > Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@...hat.com> Applied, thanks.
