The Record Route IP option records the addresses of the routers that routed the packet. In the case of forwarded packets, the kernel performs a route lookup via fib_lookup() and fills in the preferred source address of the matched route. The lookup is performed with the DS field of the forwarded packet, but using the RT_TOS() macro which only masks one of the two ECN bits. If the packet is ECT(0) or CE, the matched route might be different than the route via which the packet was forwarded as the input path masks both of the ECN bits, resulting in the wrong address being filled in the Record Route option. Fix by masking both of the ECN bits. Fixes: 8e36360ae876 ("ipv4: Remove route key identity dependencies in ip_rt_get_source().")

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 reStructuredText 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.
