Similarly how TCP_MD5SIG_FLAG_IFINDEX works for TCP-MD5, TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX is an AO-key flag that binds that MKT to a specified by L3 ifinndex. Similarly, without this flag the key will work in the default VRF l3index = 0 for connections. To prevent AO-keys from overlapping, it's restricted to add key B for a socket that has key A, which have the same sndid/rcvid and one of the following is true: - !(A.keyflags & TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX) or !(B.keyflags & TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX) so that any key is non-bound to a VRF - A.l3index == B.l3index both want to work for the same VRF Additionally, it's restricted to match TCP-MD5 keys for the same peer the following way: |--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------| | | MD5 key without | MD5 key | MD5 key | | | l3index | l3index=0 | l3index=N | |--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------| | TCP-AO key | | | | | without | reject | reject | reject | | l3index | | | | |--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------| | TCP-AO key | | | | | l3index=0 | reject | reject | allow | |--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------| | TCP-AO key | | | | | l3index=N | reject | allow | reject | |--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------| This is done with the help of tcp_md5_do_lookup_any_l3index() to reject adding AO key without TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX if there's TCP-MD5 in any VRF. This is important for case where sysctl_tcp_l3mdev_accept = 1 Similarly, for TCP-AO lookups tcp_ao_do_lookup() may be used with l3index < 0, so that __tcp_ao_key_cmp() will match TCP-AO key in any VRF.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
