The problem is that when new policies are inserted, sockets do not see the update (but all new route lookups do). This bug is related to the SA insertion stale route issue solved recently, and this policy visibility problem can be fixed in a similar way. The fix is to flush out the bundles of all policies deeper than the policy being inserted. Consider beginning state of "outgoing" direction policy list: policy A --> policy B --> policy C --> policy D First, realize that inserting a policy into a list only potentially changes IPSEC routes for that direction. Therefore we need not bother considering the policies for other directions. We need only consider the existing policies in the list we are doing the inserting. Consider new policy "B'", inserted after B. policy A --> policy B --> policy B' --> policy C --> policy D Two rules: 1) If policy A or policy B matched before the insertion, they appear before B' and thus would still match after inserting B' 2) Policy C and D, now "shadowed" and after policy B', potentially contain stale routes because policy B' might be selected instead of them. Therefore we only need flush routes assosciated with policies appearing after a newly inserted policy, if any. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |
