However, if no IPv4 addresses are configured on the system at all, this will fail and we end up producing an ICMP message with a source address of 0.0.0.0. This can happen on a box routing IPv4 traffic via v6 nexthops, for instance. Since 0.0.0.0 is not generally routable on the internet, there's a good chance that such ICMP messages will never make it back to the sender of the original packet that the ICMP message was sent in response to. This, in turn, can create connectivity and PMTUd problems for senders. Fortunately, RFC7600 reserves a dummy address to be used as a source for ICMP messages (192.0.0.8/32), so let's teach the kernel to substitute that address as a last resort if the regular source address selection procedure fails. Below is a quick example reproducing this issue with network namespaces: ip netns add ns0 ip l add type veth peer netns ns0 ip l set dev veth0 up ip a add 10.0.0.1/24 dev veth0 ip a add fc00:dead:cafe:42::1/64 dev veth0 ip r add 10.1.0.0/24 via inet6 fc00:dead:cafe:42::2 ip -n ns0 l set dev veth0 up ip -n ns0 a add fc00:dead:cafe:42::2/64 dev veth0 ip -n ns0 r add 10.0.0.0/24 via inet6 fc00:dead:cafe:42::1 ip netns exec ns0 sysctl -w net.ipv4.icmp_ratelimit=0 ip netns exec ns0 sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 tcpdump -tpni veth0 -c 2 icmp & ping -w 1 10.1.0.1 > /dev/null tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v[v]... for full protocol decode listening on veth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), snapshot length 262144 bytes IP 10.0.0.1 > 10.1.0.1: ICMP echo request, id 29, seq 1, length 64 IP 0.0.0.0 > 10.0.0.1: ICMP net 10.1.0.1 unreachable, length 92 2 packets captured 2 packets received by filter 0 packets dropped by kernel With this patch the above capture changes to: IP 10.0.0.1 > 10.1.0.1: ICMP echo request, id 31127, seq 1, length 64 IP 192.0.0.8 > 10.0.0.1: ICMP net 10.1.0.1 unreachable, length 92 Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Reported-by: Juliusz Chroboczek Reviewed-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen Signed-off-by: David S.
