Use ping -r to test the kernel behaviour with raw and ping sockets having the SO_DONTROUTE option. Since ipv4_ping_novrf() is called with different values of net.ipv4.ping_group_range, then it tests both raw and ping sockets (ping uses ping sockets if its user ID belongs to ping_group_range and raw sockets otherwise). With both socket types, sending packets to a neighbour (on link) host, should work. When the host is behind a router, sending should fail.

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.
