This is due to two related issues in handling sticky pktinfo, used by ping6 to enforce the device binding: - ip6_dst_lookup_flow()/ip6_dst_lookup_tail() do not really enforce flowi6_oif match - ipv6 udp connect() just ignore flowi6_oif These patches address each issue individually. The kernel has never enforced the egress interface specified via the sticky pktinfo, except briefly between the commits 741a11d9e410 ("net: ipv6: Add RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag if oif is set") and d46a9d678e4c ("net: ipv6: Dont add RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag if saddr set"), but the ping6 tools was unaffected up to iputils-20100214, since before it used SO_BINDTODEVICE to enforce the egress interface. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
