From 53602f92dd3691616478a40738353694bcfef171 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2006 14:49:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV4]: Clear skb cb on IP input when data arrives at IP through loopback (and possibly other devices). So the field needs to be cleared before it confuses the route code. This was seen when running netem over loopback, but there are probably other device cases. Maybe this should go into stable?
