net: ipv6: Fix oif in TCP SYN+ACK route lookup.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
net-next commit 9c76a11, ipv6: tcp_ipv6 policy route issue, had
a boolean logic error that caused incorrect behaviour for TCP
SYN+ACK when oif-based rules are in use. Specifically:

1. If a SYN comes in from a global address, and sk_bound_dev_if
   is not set, the routing lookup has oif set to the interface
   the SYN came in on. Instead, it should have oif unset,
   because for global addresses, the incoming interface doesn't
   necessarily have any bearing on the interface the SYN+ACK is
   sent out on.
2. If a SYN comes in from a link-local address, and
   sk_bound_dev_if is set, the routing lookup has oif set to the
   interface the SYN came in on. Instead, it should have oif set
   to sk_bound_dev_if, because that's what the application
   requested.
