[PATCH net-next v4 0/2] icmp: Fix icmp error source address over xfrm tunnel
From: Antony Antony <hidden>
Date: 2026-01-28 10:20:28
This fix, originally sent to XFRM/IPsec, has been recommended by
Steffen Klassert to submit to the net tree, since it changes ICMP
behavior.
The patch addresses a minor issue related to the IPv4 source address
of ICMP error messages. The bug only occurs when xfrm policies are
configured. It originated from an old 2011 commit:
commit 415b3334a21a ("icmp: Fix regression in nexthop resolution during
replies.")
Submitting to net-next with a selftest.
