[NETFILTER]: xt_pkttype: fix mismatches on locally generated packets
Locally generated broadcast and multicast packets have pkttype set to PACKET_LOOPBACK instead of PACKET_BROADCAST or PACKET_MULTICAST. This causes the pkttype match to fail to match packets of either type. The below patch remedies this by using the daddr as a hint as to broadcast|multicast. While not pretty, this seems like the only way to solve the problem short of just noting this as a limitation of the match. This resolves netfilter bugzilla #484 Signed-off-by: Phil Oester <kernel@linuxace.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
