From 8247a79efa2f28b44329f363272550c1738377de Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hangbin Liu Date: Sun, 22 Dec 2019 10:51:14 +0800 Subject: vti: do not confirm neighbor when do pmtu update When do IPv6 tunnel PMTU update and calls __ip6_rt_update_pmtu() in the end, we should not call dst_confirm_neigh() as there is no two-way communication. Although vti and vti6 are immune to this problem because they are IFF_NOARP interfaces, as Guillaume pointed. There is still no sense to confirm neighbour here. v5: Update commit description. v4: No change. v3: Do not remove dst_confirm_neigh, but add a new bool parameter in dst_ops.update_pmtu to control whether we should do neighbor confirm. Also split the big patch to small ones for each area. v2: Remove dst_confirm_neigh in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu.
