From 607d8297d5d78dc84dc8257a60f2c0a5863a07d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeffrey Knockel <jeffk@cs.unm.edu> Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2014 07:47:20 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Patch for 3.2.x, 3.4.x IP identifier regression With commits 73f156a6e8c1 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count") and 04ca6973f7c1 ("ip: make IP identifiers less predictable"), IP identifiers are generated from a counter chosen from an array of counters indexed by the hash of the outgoing packet header's source address, destination address, and protocol number. Thus, in __ip_make_skb(), we must now call ip_select_ident() only after setting these fields in the IP header to prevent IP identifiers from being generated from bogus counters. IP id sequence before fix: 18174, 5789, 5953, 59420, 59637, ... After fix: 5967, 6185, 6374, 6600, 6795, 6892, 7051, 7288, ...
