[PATCH] bridge: mcast snooping, fix IPv6 MLD checksum calculation |
|
[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]
In contrast to IGMP, the MLDv1/2 message checksum needs to include an
IPv6 "pseudo-header" in the calculations (see RFC2710, section 3.3;
RFC3810, section 5.1.2).
The multicast snooping feature of the bridge code however did not take
this "pseudo-header" into consideration for the checksum validation when
parsing a snooped IPv6 MLDv1/2 message of another host, leading to
possibly ignored, though valid MLDv1/2 messages. This commit shall fix
this issue.
