ipv6_chk_addr() is calling ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(), which traverses
the addr hash list again. So I'm thinking to reuse the code of
ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(), and do:
+static struct net_device *
+__ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(struct net *net, const struct in6_addr *addr,
+ const struct net_device *dev, bool skip_dev_check,
+ int strict, u32 banned_flags)
{
unsigned int hash = inet6_addr_hash(net, addr);
const struct net_device *l3mdev;
@@ -1926,12 +1918,29 @@ int ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(struct net *net,
const struct in6_addr *addr,
(!dev || ifp->idev->dev == dev ||
!(ifp->scope&(IFA_LINK|IFA_HOST) || strict))) {
rcu_read_unlock();
- return 1;
+ return ifp->idev->dev;
}
}
rcu_read_unlock();
- return 0;
+ return NULL;
+}
and change these functions to :
int ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(struct net *net, const struct in6_addr *addr,
const struct net_device *dev, bool skip_dev_check,
int strict, u32 banned_flags)
{
return __ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(net, addr, dev, skip_dev_check,
strict, banned_flags) ? 1 : 0;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags);
struct net_device *ipv6_dev_find(struct net *net, const struct in6_addr *addr,
struct net_device *dev)
{
return __ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(net, addr, NULL, 0, 1,
IFA_F_TENTATIVE);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(ipv6_dev_find);
what do you think?
