From 52d03786459a7cf4d63a68146409f7a2088aefb2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Justin Iurman Date: Sun, 3 Oct 2021 20:45:36 +0200 Subject: ipv6: ioam: Distinguish input and output for hop-limit This patch anticipates the support for the IOAM insertion inside in-transit packets, by making a difference between input and output in order to determine the right value for its hop-limit (inherited from the IPv6 hop-limit). Input case: happens before ip6_forward, the IPv6 hop-limit is not decremented yet -> decrement the IOAM hop-limit to reflect the new hop inside the trace. Output case: happens after ip6_forward, the IPv6 hop-limit has already been decremented -> keep the same value for the IOAM hop-limit. Signed-off-by: Justin Iurman Signed-off-by: David S.
