Stefano Brivio ad7013cd6d netfilter: ipset: Allow matching on destination MAC address for mac and ipmac sets
[ Upstream commit 8cc4ccf583 ]

There doesn't seem to be any reason to restrict MAC address
matching to source MAC addresses in set types bitmap:ipmac,
hash:ipmac and hash:mac. With this patch, and this setup:

  ip netns add A
  ip link add veth1 type veth peer name veth2 netns A
  ip addr add 192.0.2.1/24 dev veth1
  ip -net A addr add 192.0.2.2/24 dev veth2
  ip link set veth1 up
  ip -net A link set veth2 up

  ip netns exec A ipset create test hash:mac
  dst=$(ip netns exec A cat /sys/class/net/veth2/address)
  ip netns exec A ipset add test ${dst}
  ip netns exec A iptables -P INPUT DROP
  ip netns exec A iptables -I INPUT -m set --match-set test dst -j ACCEPT

ipset will match packets based on destination MAC address:

  # ping -c1 192.0.2.2 >/dev/null
  # echo $?
  0

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
