FreeBSD zfs.teardrop.org 7.0-RC1 FreeBSD 7.0-RC1 #18: Sat Feb 2 15:08:42 UTC 2008 snow@zfs.teardrop.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
>Description:
In sys/netinet/ip_icmp.c at line 625, this bit of code:
if (!in_canforward(ip->ip_src) &&
((ntohl(ip->ip_src.s_addr) & IN_CLASSA_NET) !=
(IN_LOOPBACKNET << IN_CLASSA_NSHIFT))) {
m_freem(m); /* Bad return address */
icmpstat.icps_badaddr++;
goto done; /* Ip_output() will check for broadcast */
}
Causes the system to not respond to any ICMP traffic on any interface configured with a link-local address (169.254/16).
>How-To-Repeat:
ifconfig lo1 create
ifconfig lo1 inet 169.254.1.1 netmask 255.255.0.0
ping 169.254.1.1
>Fix:
Unknown, but I believe bms@freebsd.org has a fix in mind.
