From 28658c8967da9083be83af0a37be3b190bae79da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Oester Date: Mon, 24 Jul 2006 22:54:14 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NETFILTER]: xt_pkttype: fix mismatches on locally generated packets Locally generated broadcast and multicast packets have pkttype set to PACKET_LOOPBACK instead of PACKET_BROADCAST or PACKET_MULTICAST. This causes the pkttype match to fail to match packets of either type. The below patch remedies this by using the daddr as a hint as to broadcast|multicast. While not pretty, this seems like the only way to solve the problem short of just noting this as a limitation of the match.
