The change also makes "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode ("forwarding"
sysctl set to 2) redundant, as the only thing that distinguished it from
the standard Router mode (forwarding=1) was that RSes was being sent. It
has therefore been removed.You're not removing "accept_ra==2", it's still there in the test:
quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
- if ((ifp->idev->cnf.forwarding == 0 || - ifp->idev->cnf.forwarding == 2) && + if (((ifp->idev->cnf.accept_ra == 1 && !ifp->idev->cnf.forwarding) || + ifp->idev->cnf.accept_ra == 2) &&
And it does provide it's own unique behavior compared to "accept_ra==1".
