Subject: Re: [PATCH net v3] net: ipmr: Fix some mroute forwarding issues in
vrf's

> This patch fixes two issues:

> 1) When forwarding on *,G mroutes that are in a vrf, the

> This caused ip_mr_forward to send the multicast packet
> back out the incoming interface. Fix this by

> 2) When a unresolved cache entry is created we store

> we attempt to forward the packet. Again we were
