Currently a packet is marked for loopback only if the source and
destination address match. This is not enough when multiple
gids are present in rxe's gid table and the traffic is
from one gid to another.

Fix it by marking the packet for loopback if the destination
address appears in rxe's gid table.

Hi Leon,
Thanks for the review.


In addition to Moni's comment, no "inline" functions in *.c files, please.


Sure, I simply followed the function on the same file:
static inline int addr_same(struct rxe_dev *rxe, struct rxe_av *av)
I even borrowed the name...

+ struct in_device *in_dev;
+ bool same_rxe = false;
+
+ rcu_read_lock();
+ in_dev = __in_dev_get_rcu(rxe->ndev);
+ if (!in_dev)
+ goto out;
+
+ for_ifa(in_dev)
+ if (!memcmp(&ifa->ifa_address, daddr, sizeof(*daddr))) {
+ same_rxe = true;
+ goto out;
+ }
+ endfor_ifa(in_dev);

I'm afraid that it will decrease performance drastically. One of the
possible solutions to overcome it, is to check the address of first packet
only, but it will work for RC only.


How do you know is "the first" packet?
And yes, for UD the performance would decrease, but only
if the netdev has multiple IPs, right?

I'll ask on Moni's response mail for alternatives.

Thanks,
Marcel
