Attempts to connect to a local address with a socket bound
to a device with the local address hangs if there is no listener:
$ ip addr sh dev eth1
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 02:e0:f9:1c:00:37 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.100.1.4/24 scope global eth1
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 2001:db8:1::4/120 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe1c:37/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
$ vrf-test -I eth1 -r 10.100.1.4
<hangs when there is no server>
(don't let the command name fool you; vrf-test works without vrfs.)
The problem is that the original intended device, eth1 in this case, is
lost when the tcp reset is sent, so the socket lookup does not find a
match for the reset and the connect attempt hangs. Fix by adjusting
orig_oif for local traffic to the device from the fib lookup result.
With this patch you get the more user friendly:
$ vrf-test -I eth1 -r 10.100.1.4
connect failed: 111: Connection refused
orig_oif is saved to the newly created rtable as rt_iif and when set
it is used as the dif for socket lookups. It is set based on flowi4_oif
passed in to ip_route_output_key_hash_rcu and will be set to either
the loopback device, an l3mdev device, nothing (flowi4_oif = 0 which
is the case in the example above) or a netdev index depending on the
lookup path. In each case, resetting orig_oif to the device in the fib
result for the RTN_LOCAL case allows the actual device to be preserved
as the skb tx and rx is done over the loopback or VRF device.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
